Medrol, drospirenone, progesterone, 11-deoxycortisol, spironolactone and drospirenone had an higher efficacy on zfMR than on hMR
Dose-response curves of medrol (A), drospirenone (B), progesterone (C), 11-deoxycortisol (D), spironolactone (E), and drospirenone (F) in UG5LN-GAL4-hMR and UG5LN-GAL4-zfMR cells. Chemicals were tested alone (agonism test) or in the presence of aldosterone 1 nM in UG5LN-GAL4-hMR cells and 0.5 10−9 M in UG5LN-GAL4-zfMR cells (antagonism test). Results are expressed as the percentage of the maximum luciferase activity induced by 10−8 M aldosterone. The curves are presented as a non-linear regression; log (ligand) versus response. EC50 values (10−9 M) and IC50 values (10−9 M) are shown in
Data are presented as means ± SD values. n (replicates per experiment) = 4 per group.
