1 | We have previously shown that long-term treatment of airway smooth muscle (ASM) cells with a combination of TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma impaired steroid anti-inflammatory action through the up-regulation of glucocorticoid receptor beta isoform (GRbeta) (Mol Pharmacol 2006;69:588-596). | Steroids | interferon gamma | Homo sapiens |
2 | We here found that steroid actions could also be suppressed by short-term exposure of ASM cells to TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma (6 h) as shown by the abrogated glucocorticoid responsive element (GRE)-dependent gene transcription; surprisingly, neither GRalpha nuclear translocation nor GRbeta expression was affected by cytokine mixture. | Steroids | interferon gamma | Homo sapiens |
