  • Title: Cortisol suppresses radiation transformation in vitro.
    Author: Kennedy AR.
    Journal: Cancer Lett; 1985 Dec; 29(3):289-92. PubMed ID: 4075298.
    Abstract:
    It is reported that 10(-7) M cortisol has a significant suppressive effect on radiation-induced transformation in vitro in C3H10T1/2 cells. Previously reported data showed a significant enhancing effect for similar experiments performed with cortisone. Thus, these two structurally similar glucocorticoid hormones have opposite effects on transformation induced by ionizing radiation.
