Abstract

It has been reported that the human cell line NHIK 3025 has a specific cytoplasmic glucocorticoid receptor. When these cells were exposed to glucocorticoids, the cell cycle time was prolonged. Cells, synchronized by mitotic selection, were subjected to the synthetic glucocorticoid dexamethasone throughout the cell cycle. Only cells exposed in the first half of G1 phase had a lengthened cell cycle time. Most of the prolongation was also located within the G1 phase. The dexamethasone growth inhibition was reversible and could be detected only in the cell cycle where the cells were exposed to the steroid. DNA‐histograms of asynchronous cells were recorded by flowcytometry at various times after steroid exposure. These histograms also showed G1 phase sensitivity and G1 phase prolongation after exposure to dexamethasone. Our results thus indicate that these cells have a dexamethasone‐sensitive restriction point in mid‐G1 phase of the cell cycle.

We have studied the effect of cell anchorage on the human cell line NHlK 3025 in vitro, to see whether the growth regulating effect of cell anchorage primarily affected DNA division cycle or mass growth cycle. It was found that cell to cell anchorage had the same effect on cell cycle progression as

## Abstract It has previously been found that human NHIK 3025 cells have a glucocortiocoid‐sensitive restriction point in mid‐G1 phase of the cell cycle. When these cells were synchronized by mitotic selection and exposed to dexamethasone before the restriction point, G1 phase was prolonged whereas
