title: [Regulation of the transcription of the tyrosine aminotransferase gene by glucocorticoids in Morris hepatoma 7777 and 8994 cells].
abstract: Kinetics of tyrosine aminotransferase (TAT) mRNA synthesis in Morris rat hepatoma cell lines 7777 and 8994 after dexamethasone treatment (10(-7) M) was studied by molecular hybridization of the RNA with cloned fragments of TAT gene from rat liver cells. It was demonstrated that initiation of TAT gene transcription increased 20 minutes after glucocorticoid treatment. The level of TAT mRNA was not induced by dexamethasone in rat hepatoma cell line 8994. Actinomycin D prevented the deinduction of TAT by stabilization of TAT mRNA.
