Expression of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and importin 13 (IPO13, mediates nuclear import of GR) are temporarily up-regulated in postnatal lungs of the BN rat. (A) GR and IPO13 expression in whole lung tissue was assessed by quantitative real-time PCR. At PN7 and 14, a significant increase in GR mRNA was seen in BN rat (n = 4; P < 0.006). At PN1 only, a significant decrease in IPO13 mRNA was seen in BN rat (n = 4; P < 0.05). (B) Representative images of GR immunostaining showing increased nuclear GR in the lungs of BN rats at PN7 and 14. (C) Representative images of IPO13 immunostaining show decreased nuclear IPO13 in the lungs of BN rats at PN1.
