| Abstract | Cross-talk between the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and other receptors is emerging as a mechanism for fine-tuning cellular responses. We have previously shown that gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) ligand-independently activates the GR and synergistically modulates glucocorticoid-induced transcription of an endogenous gene in LßT2 pituitary gonadotrope precursor cells. Here, we investigated GR and GnRH receptor (GnRHR) cross-talk that involves co-localization with lipid rafts in LßT2 cells. We report that the GnRHR and a small population of the GR co-localize with the lipid raft protein flotillin-1 (Flot-1) at the plasma membrane and that the GR is present in a complex with Flot-1, independent of the presence of ligands. We found that the SGK-1 gene is up-regulated by Dex and GnRH alone, whereas a combination of both ligands resulted in a synergistic increase in SGK-1 mRNA levels. Using siRNA-mediated knockdown and antagonist strategies, we show that the gene-specific synergistic transcriptional response requires the GR, GnRHR, and Flot-1 as well as the protein kinase C pathway. Interestingly, although several GR cofactors are differentially recruited to the SGK-1 promoter in the presence of Dex and GnRH, GR levels remain unchanged compared with Dex treatment alone, suggesting that lipid raft association of the GR has a role in enhancing its transcriptional output in the nucleus. Finally, we show that Dex plus GnRH synergistically inhibit cell proliferation in a manner dependent on SGK-1 and Flot-1. Collectively the results support a mechanism whereby GR and GnRHR cross-talk within Flot-1-containing lipid rafts modulates cell proliferation via PKC activation and SGK-1 up-regulation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
