Dexamethasone up-regulates mRNA for Na+,K+-ATPase in some spinal cord neurones after cord transection
We have studied the effects of spinal cord transection and of dexamethasone (DEX) treatment on mRNA biosynthesis of the Na+,K+-ATPase, a key enzyme necessary for neurotransmission, membrane repolarization and nutrient uptake in the CNS. In situ hybridization analysis revealed a significant reduction...

In situ hybridization analysis revealed a significant reduction in mRNA for the α3 catalytic subunit of the enzyme in medium and large size ventral horn neurones (1000-2300 μm2) but not in small cells (1000 μm2) 24 h after spinal cord transection.
