The effect of dexamethasone and of three potential antiglucocorticoids, namely dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and its 7alpha-and 7beta-hydroxylated metabolites, on primary immune response has been studied by measuring the number of plaque forming cells (NPFC) and their viability in a cell culture of murine spleenocytes. As expected, dexamethasone suppressed considerably the NPFC as well as their viability. Surprisingly, DHEA as well as its 7alpha-hydroxylated metabolite decreased significantly the NPFC, while the effect of 7beta-hydroxy-DHEA was different: at low doses it decreased the NPFC, but this effect was less pronounced at higher concentrations. In addition, 7beta-hydroxy-DHEA was able to counteract the effect of dexamethasone on the NPFC. None of the natural steroids affected the cell viability.
