Abstract:
UNLABELLED:Inhibins (INH) are dimeric glycoproteins composed of an alpha-subunit (INH-alpha) and one of two possible beta-subunits (INH-betaA or -betaB), with substantial roles in human reproduction and in endocrine-responsive tumours. The aim of the present study was the determination of the frequency and tissue distribution patterns of the inhibin/activin subunits in endometrial carcinoma cells of the cell line RL-95-2 after stimulation with estradiol and cortisol compared to unstimulated controls. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Cells of the endometrial carcinoma cell line RL-95-2 were grown on quadriperm tissue slides and incubated with different concentrations (0.1 and 0.01 micromol/ml) of estradiol or cortisol. Expression of INH-alpha, betaA and betaB was analysed by immunocytochemistry with specific monoclonal antibodies directed against the inhibin subunits. RESULTS:Expression of INH-alpha and -betaB was higher in cortisol-stimulated RL-95-2 cells, whereas INH-betaA expression was lower. In contrast to these, INH-betaB expression was increased by estradiol while INH-alpha and -betaA were unchanged under estradiol treatment. CONCLUSION:Expression of INH-subunits in RL-95-2 cells was described. Cortisol and estradiol showed an influence on INH expression. The RL-95-2 cell line could act as a useful model for the investigation of INH regulation, particularly for endometrial cancer.
