Product Description
Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate, the salt form of Dexamethasone administered through i.v. injection, is a potent synthetic glucocorticoid class of steroid drugs, and an interleukin receptor modulator with anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive activities. Dexamethasone has anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressant effects. It is 25-fold more potent than cortisol in its glucocorticoid effect, while having minimal mineralocorticoid effect. Dexamethasone is used for the treatment of many conditions including: rheumatologic problems, a number of skin diseases such as erythema multiforme, severe allergies, asthma.


Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (used as dexamethasone at 1 μM) is a synthetic glucocorticoid that reduces paracellular permeability in cultured rat brain endothelial cells (GPNT). It promotes a more differentiated blood-brain barrier (BBB) phenotype by modifying tight junction structure and cytoskeletal organization, including increased expression of ZO-1 and occludin, and redistribution of F-actin and cortactin to cell-cell contacts. [1]
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Glucocorticoid receptor (likely mediates transcriptional regulation of tight junction proteins; no IC50/Ki/EC50/DC50 values reported). [1]
ln Vitro
Dexamethasone inhibits COX-2 mRNA expression induced by IL-1 in human articular chondrocytes. Dexamethasone suppresses the cyclooxygenase-2 induction by tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) with an IC50 of 1 nM in MC3T3-E1 cells. Dexamethasone binds to the glucocorticoid receptor and then to the glucocorticoid response element. Dexamethasone (10 μM) induces osteoblastic differentiation of rat bone marrow stromal cell cultures with elevated mRNA expression of alkaline phosphatase osteopontin, bone sialoprotein, and osteocalcin. Dexamethasone (5 μM) treatment decreases proliferation of adult hippocampal neural progenitor cells and SRE-driven gene expression.
Treatment of GPNT cells with 1 μM Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (as dexamethasone) from seeding decreased paracellular permeability to [14C]sucrose by 39±7% and to fluorescein by 47±7% (Pe values: sucrose control 7.373±0.617 ×10^{-3} cm/min, treated 4.496±0.530; fluorescein control 5.210±0.472, treated 2.781±0.395 ×10^{-3} cm/min). Permeability to FITC-dextrans of 4, 10, 20, 40, 70, 150 kDa was also reduced, with significant reduction for FD20 (20 kDa) from 0.333±0.031 to 0.156±0.013 ×10^{-3} cm/min. [1]
Pore analysis indicated a decrease in number of large pores (~185 Å radius) and reduction of small pore radius from ~14.5 Å to ~8.3 Å following treatment. [1]
Western blot analysis showed increased expression of tight junction proteins ZO-1 (225 kDa) and occludin (65 kDa) in treated cells. No change in expression of α-, β-, γ-catenin or p100/p120. [1]
Immunofluorescence revealed improved continuity of ZO-1 at cell-cell contacts; occludin remained low but became detectable at junctions after treatment. [1]
TRITC-phalloidin staining showed redistribution of F-actin from cytoplasmic stress fibers to cell periphery; cortactin similarly relocalized to cell-cell contacts. [1]
No change in expression of actin-binding proteins cortactin, ezrin, or tyrosine kinase c-Src was observed by Western blot. [1]
Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate treatment did not alter transendothelial electrical resistance (remained ~66±3 Ω cm²). [1]
ln Vivo
Dexamethasone (2 mg/kg) reduces the number of the BrdU-labeled hepatocytes by 80% in male Fischer F344 rats. Dexamethasone (2 mg/kg) pretreatment suppresses the expression of both TNF and IL-6 after partial hepatectomy and significantly reduces the proliferative response of the hepatocytes in male Fischer F344 rats. Dexamethasone also severely diminishes the induction and expansion of oval cells induced by the 2-acetylaminofluorene/partial hepatectomy (AAF/PH) protocol but does not have any effect on the proliferation of the bile duct cells stimulated by bile duct ligation. Dexamethasone (100 μg/kg) produces a significant decrease 59.2% of BrdU(+) hippocampal progenitor cells in Sprague–Dawley rats. Dexamethasone (100 μg/kg) decreases ERK activation in granule cell layer in Sprague–Dawley rats.
Cell Assay
Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (as dexamethasone) was used in cell-based assays only. GPNT cells (immortalized rat brain endothelial line) were grown to confluence on collagen-coated Transwell-Clear inserts (polyester, 12 mm diameter, 0.4 μm pore size) or six-well plates in DMEM:Ham's F12 (1:1) medium containing 10% fetal calf serum, 10 mM HEPES, 100 U/mL penicillin, 100 μg/mL streptomycin, with or without 1 μM Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate added from seeding. [1]
Paracellular permeability measurement: Monolayers on Transwell inserts were incubated with tracer markers ([14C]sucrose, fluorescein, FITC-dextrans of 4,10,20,40,70,150 kDa) in the apical compartment. Samples were taken from basolateral compartment at timed intervals. Permeability coefficients (Pe) were calculated from the slope of cleared volume vs. time curves. Values were corrected for unconjugated fluorescein in dextran preparations. [1]
Transendothelial electrical resistance (TEER) measurement: Confluent GPNT monolayers on Transwell inserts were measured using an Endohm 12 chamber and Endohmeter; resistance was 66±3 Ω cm², unchanged by dexamethasone. [1]
Immunofluorescence: Cells were fixed and stained with antibodies against ZO-1, occludin, β-catenin, p100/p120, and TRITC-phalloidin for F-actin, and anti-cortactin. Images were acquired. [1]
Western blot: Whole cell lysates were prepared by replacing culture medium with hot SDS sample buffer, heated at 95°C for 5 min. Extracts were resolved by SDS-PAGE, transferred to nitrocellulose, blocked with 5% non-fat milk, probed with primary antibodies (anti-ZO-1, anti-occludin, anti-α/β/γ-catenin, anti-p100/p120, anti-cortactin, anti-ezrin, anti-c-Src), then HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies, and detected by enhanced chemiluminescence. [1]

Additional Infomation
Dexamethasone sodium phosphate is an organosodium salt, the disodium salt of dexamethasone phosphate. It is a glucocorticoid receptor agonist. It contains the dexamethasone (2-) ion. Dexamethasone sodium phosphate is the sodium phosphate form of dexamethasone, a synthetic adrenocortical hormone with potent anti-inflammatory properties. In addition to binding to specific nuclear steroid receptors, dexamethasone can interfere with NF-κB activation and apoptosis pathways. Compared to other related adrenal hormones, this drug does not have sodium-retaining effects.

Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (as dexamethasone) is a synthetic corticosteroid that modulates tight junction permeability in brain endothelial cells via glucocorticoid receptor-mediated transcriptional regulation. It may upregulate ZO-1 and occludin gene expression or downregulate mediators that increase permeability (e.g., MMP-9, VEGF). The effect is cell-type specific; similar observations have been reported in retinal endothelial cells with hydrocortisone, but not in mammary epithelial cells where actin/ZO-1 distribution was unchanged.
