PRP was incubated with vehicle (control), 10 μM dexamethasone (Dex), or 10 μM prednisolone (Pred) for the time indicated. Then, immunoprecipitation with specific antibodies to HSP70, HSP90, FKBP51, or FKBP52 was conducted as described in “Materials and methods,” and WB analysis for GR was applied to reveal direct protein association. See Figure 7 for an example of basal detection of GR association with each single chaperone. Data, reported as arbitrary units, are mean ± SEM of at least 3 distinct experiments.
