Previous studies from this laboratory have shown that C-6 rat glioma cells (2B clone) exhibit specific phenotypic characteristics depending on passage in culture and that these populations respond differentially to addition of various exogenous compounds to the medium. Early passage (<25) C-6 glial
## Abstract The relationship between induction of glutamine synthetase activity by dexamethasone and binding of the steroid to cytosolic glucocorticoid receptors was examined in sensitive C6 and resistant C6H glial cell cultures. Glutamine synthetase activity increased 3–4‐fold when C6 cultures we
Previous studies have demonstrated variability in the phenotype of rat C6 glioma cells. In the present study, we compared morphology, growth rate, and P-adrenergic regulation of gene expression in early (P39-47) and late (P55-90) passage C6 cells. Morphological changes were observed in five independ
## Abstract The rat creatine kinase B (CKB) gene is induced by estrogen in the uterus, and constructs containing rat CKB gene promoter inserts are highly estrogen‐responsive in cell culture. Analysis of the upstream −568 to −523 region of the promoter in HeLa cells has identified an imperfect palin
