Fibroblasts in culture were treated with the glucocorticoid budesonide. The nucleotide and sugar nucleotide pools were quantitated after separation by isotachophoresis. Steroid treatment induced a 40% increase of the UDP-N-acetylhexosamine pool and a 30% increase of the UDP-glucuronic acid pool whereas the UTP pool was diminished. These effects became apparent after 24 h of incubation and a new steady state was attained after 48 h of incubation. The 3'-phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate pool was probably not influenced by the glucocorticoid treatment. The half-life of the UDP-N-acetylhexosamine pool was considerably longer in treated than in control cells. The efflux from the UDP-N-acetylhexosamine pool was also lowered in the treated cells. The changed efflux may be due to a decreased glycoconjugate synthesis induced by glucocorticoid treatment. The rate of equilibration of [14C]glucose and [3H]glucosamine with the UDP-N-acetylhexosamine pool was changed by glucocorticoid treatment; especially that of [3H]glucosamine was decreased.
