The rate growth of L-929 mouse fibroblasts in vitro is decreased by the glucocorticosteroid dexamethasone (dex) in vitro, and cell adhesiveness. These effects were abolished by RU 486, a new synthetic anti-hormone steroid, in both serum-containing medium and serum-free, chemically defined culture medium. RU 486 did not display any glucocorticosteroid-like activity. 3H-RU 486 binds with high affinity (Kdeq .apprx. 0.4 nM) to the same high affinity receptor-binding sites as dex (Kd .apprx. 0.5 nM) in the cell cytosol, as indicated by Scatchard plot, gradient-ultracentrifugation and competition studies. After incubation of whole cells with 3H-RU 486 at 37.degree. C, a radioactive antihormone-receptor complex was found in the nucleus. However, quantitative studies vs. 3H-dex indicated that the antagonist provokes less nuclear receptor complex than the agonist.
