Expression and dexamethasone-induced nuclear translocation of glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid receptors in guinea pig cochlear cells

► GC-R and MC-R are expressed in epithelial and connective cells of the guinea pig cochlea. ► GC-R and MC-R were found in different compartments of guinea pig cochlear cells. ► GC effects could be associated with activation of GC-R and MC-R mediated pathways.
