We demonstrate that annexin I/lipocortin I (lipo I) gene expression is regulated by dexamethasone (DEX) in mouse 3T3-L1 fibroblasts and LA-4 lung epithelial cells. We have characterized this induction further in 3T3-L1 fibroblasts. At 24 h after addition of DEX, the levels of lipo I mRNA and protein increased 5-fold and 1.5-fold respectively. Time-course experiments revealed that the induction was delayed by 2-4 h after DEX addition. Half-maximal induction of both lipo I mRNA and protein was achieved with 10 nM-DEX. Both actinomycin D and cycloheximide blocked the DEX effect on lipo I mRNA expression. These results indicate that the induction of lipo I by DEX has a transcriptional component and requires protein synthesis de novo.
我们证明,在小鼠3T3-L1成纤维细胞和LA-4肺上皮细胞中,膜联蛋白I/脂皮质蛋白I(脂皮质蛋白I)基因表达受地塞米松(DEX)调控。我们在3T3-L1成纤维细胞中进一步对这种诱导作用进行了表征。添加DEX后24小时,脂皮质蛋白I mRNA和蛋白质水平分别增加了5倍和1.5倍。时间进程实验表明,添加DEX后诱导作用延迟2-4小时。10 nM DEX可实现脂皮质蛋白I mRNA和蛋白质的半数最大诱导。放线菌素D和环己酰亚胺均阻断了DEX对脂皮质蛋白I mRNA表达的作用。这些结果表明,DEX对脂皮质蛋白I的诱导具有转录成分,并且需要从头合成蛋白质。
