Abstract
The experiments indicated that selective ablation of GR in noradrenergic neurons did not affect fundamental properties of peritoneal leukocytes and exerted effects only under conditions of selected pro- or anti-inflammatory stimuli in vitro. Stronger response to pro-inflammatory stimulation in terms of NO synthesis and ARG activity may suggest pro-inflammatory tendency in mutant mice. In vivo inflammatory challenge failed to show any effect of GR ablation on selected parameters of leukocyte activity. Both in vitro studies and in vivo challenge revealed mainly sex-related differences in leukocyte activity.
