[Effects of psychotropic drugs of the phenothiazine series on matrix activity of thymocyte DNA and glucocorticoid receptor interactions].

The experiment on adrenalectomized rats has shown that the concentration rates of 3.5.10(-4)M aminazine and 7.0.10(-4)M tizercine reduce 3H-acetonide triamcinolone-receptor interaction, and the concentration rate of 7.0.10(-4) tizercine increases 3H-cortisol receptor interaction in liver cytosol. The concentration rates of 3.5.10(-7)M aminazine and 3.5.10(-5)M tizercine suppress 3H-uridine inclusion into the acid-resisting mRNA thymocyte fraction. Associated introduction of aminazine and tizercine with acetonide triamcinolone (10(-8)M) increases the inhibiting effect on 3H-uridine inclusion into mRNA thymocytes. This suggests that aminazine and tizercine suppress matrix activity of DNA thymocytes through their effect on glucocorticoid receptors of type II.
