## Abstract Confluent, quiescent Swiss 3T3 cells in culture can be stimulated to initiate DNA synthesis and divide by addition of growth factors to the culture medium. Here we show that hydrocortisone and other steroids which have glucocorticoid activity inhibit the stimulation of these cells by ep

In rat thyroid FRTL-5 cells, two signal-transduction pathways have been extensively investigated: the activation of adenylate cyclase and the production of CAMP, and the hydrolysis of phsophatidylinositol-4,5bisphosphate (PIP,) to inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP,) resulting in the release of seques
## Abstract The purpose of these studies was to examine the effects of a synthetic glucocorticoid, dexamethasone sodium phosphate, on the cell surface of an epithelial cell line, RLCGAI, and to investigate the mechanism of these effects. Within hours after addition of dexamethasone sodium phosphate
The effects of UVA, mixed UVA + B, and solar-simulated irradiation were examined in human keratinocytes and melanocytes cultured in vitro. Irradiation with UVA, UVA + B, or the solar simulator caused a dose-dependent decrease in keratinocyte cell numbers and thymidine incorporation at 24 hours, with
## Abstract We have examined the possibility that hormone‐induced increases in calcium uptake might initiate the lethal actions of glucocorticoids in two types of lymphoid cells. Hormone‐induced increases in nuclear fragility are used as the measure of hormone action, since in both rat thymus cells
