摘要: A fluorescein-conjugated bioactive analog of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) was synthesized and used to label cells that have high affinity CRF-binding sites. Of cultured bovine anterior pituitary cells, 6.1 ± 0.6% were visible by fluorescence microscopy after incubation with the analog. Fluorescence eliminated coincubation a 200-fold excess unlabeled CRF. Treatment dexamethasone (10−9−10−7 m) decreased in dose-dependent manner. These results demonstrate utility fluorescent CRF for identification specific sites suggest binding is altered glucocorticoids. (Endocrinology 119: 2376-2382, 1986)
