  • Descrição: In order to obtain further information on the trophic mechanism of action of ACTH (adrenocorticotropin) and FGF2 (fibroblast growth factor) in an architectural-preserved intact gland system, we used an in situ isolated rat adrenal infusion technique. We analyzed early response genes expression, fos, jun and myc families of proto-oncogenes related with G0- G1-S transition of cell cycle to insight the composition of complex AP-1. Sprague-Dawley male rats were anesthetized and the left adrenal gland was isolated with clamps and the abdominal aorta cannulated. The gland was provided with DMEM/heparin (30min) and then treated (2h) with 10- 7M ACTH(A) or/and 20ng/ml FGF2(F) using an infusion pump (200µl/min). The glands were fixed, embedded in paraffin, cut at 6µm and the protein expression was determined by immunohistochemistry. Without stimulation Fra-2 and c-Jun proteins were detected in medulla but not in the adrenal cortex of control rats. Glands treated with ACTH showed Fra-2 and c-Jun expression in ZF and ZR but not in ZG while FGF2 treatments showed c-Jun protein expression also in ZG. A+F combination showed increase in the c-Jun levels in ZR and medulla but down regulation in ZF. In conclusion ACTH and FGF2 are capable of differentially regulating c-Jun protein and this situation could result in change in the ratio of protein forming the AP-1 complex
