Glucocorticoid receptors and inhibition of serum prolactin by dexamethasone are reduced in rats with estrogen-induced pituitary tumors

In estrogen-induced pituitary tumors, binding of (3H)-dexamethasone (DEX) to soluble glucocorticoid receptors (GCR) was reduced 5-6 fold with respect to normal pituitaries. GCR in the tumors, however, bound normally to DNA-cellulose after heat-induced transformation. In control rats, serum prolactin...
