Abstract The mechanism by which glucocorticoids (GC) inhibit IL-4 gene expression is currently unknown. In T lymphocytes, regulated at the level of transcription increases in intracellular calcium concentration and calcium-activated phosphatase calcineurin. this paper we report that dexamethasone (Dex) inhibits ionophore-induced activation human promoter transiently transfected Jurkat cells. Inhibition Dex dependent on GC receptor (GR), because it does not occur GR-deficient also represses...
