Abstract excerpt
The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is a ligand-dependent transcription factor capable of stimulating and inhibiting the expression of target genes. To better understand the biological action of glucocorticoids and the function of GR, we have utilized the tetracycline (Tc)-regulated mammalian expression system to develop a novel cell line, E8.2/GR3, derived from GR null mouse L929 fibroblasts, that exhibits...
