Abstract
Several laboratories have documented that glucocorticoid hormones markedly stimulate the expression of mouse mammary tumor virus genes in a variety of mouse mammary tumor cells and in infected heterologous cells. The effect of the hormone appears to be a rapid and specific augmentation of the synthesis of viral RNA, mediated by interaction with glucocorticoid receptor proteins. The availability of virus-specific reagents and recent developments in the molecular biology of RNA tumor viruses now permit a highly refined analysis of hormonal regulation in this experimental system.
