Functional analysis of the zebrafish glucocorticoid receptor beta-isoform


ABSTRACT: In the present study, we have used the zebrafish to investigate the functional role of the glucocorticoid receptor beta-isoform (GRbeta). A transgenic zebrafish line, Tg(hsp70:Gal4, UAS:EGFP-grbeta), was generated, showing heat shock-inducible expression of a GFP-tagged GRbeta. After heat shock treatment at 1 and 2 days post fertilization (dpf), 3 dpf larvae (control and transgenic) were treated with beclomethasone. A microarray study was performed to study transcriptional effects of GRbeta: its effect on transcription in the absence of beclomethasone (intrinsic transcriptional activity) and its effects on beclomethasone-induced transcriptional changes (dominant-negative activity). Although the microarray results revealed minor transcriptional effects of GRbeta expression, these data could not be validated using qPCR. It was therefore concluded that GRbeta did not show any transcriptional activity under these conditions.
