n-Butyrate effects thyroid hormone stimulation of prolactin production and mRNA levels in GH1 cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Using cultured GH1 cells, a growth hormone and prolactin-producing rat pituitary cell line, we have shown that n-butyrate and other short chain carboxylic acids stimulate histone acetylation and elicit a reduction of thyroid hormone nuclear receptor which is inversely related to the extent of acetylation (Samuels, H. H., Stanley, F., Casanova, J., and Shao, T. C. (1980) J. Biol. Chem. 255, 2499-2508). In this study, we compared the n-butyrate and propionate modulation of receptor levels to regulation of the growth hormone and prolactin response by 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine (L-T3). n-Butyrate (0.1-10 mM) did not stimulate growth hormone production. L-T3 stimulated the growth hormone response 4- to 5-fold and n-butyrate (0.5-1 mM) increased L-T3 stimulation of growth hormone production 1.5- to 2-fold compared to L-T3 alone. L-T3 stimulation of growth hormone production at higher n-butyrate concentrations decreased in parallel with the n-butyrate-mediated reduction of receptor levels. In contrast with the growth hormone response, n-butyrate (0.5 mM) increased basal prolactin production about 5-fold. Prolactin production, which is inhibited 25 to 50% by L-T3, was stimulated between 20- and 70-fold by L-T3 + n-butyrate (0.5-1 mM) and this decreased at higher n-butyrate levels. Prolactin mRNA and growth hormone mRNA levels paralleled the changes in prolactin and growth hormone production rates. These effects of L-T3, n-butyrate, or L-T3 + n-butyrate appeared unrelated to changes in cAMP levels or global changes in DNA methylation of the growth hormone or prolactin genes. Propionate elicited the same effects as n-butyrate but at a 5- to 10-fold higher concentration consistent with their relative effect on stimulating acetylation of chromatin proteins. These results suggest that prolactin gene expression is under partial regulatory repression which is reversed by a carboxylic acid-mediated postsynthetic modification event which allows for stimulation of the prolactin gene by thyroid hormone. 相似文献

Modulation of thyroid hormone nuclear receptors by cholera toxin in cultured GH1 cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The cellular actions of the thyroid hormones L-thyroxine and L-triiodothyronine are mediated by the association of hormone with a chromatin-associated receptor. In cultured GH1 cells, a hormone-responsive rat pituitary cell line, thyroid hormone decreases the concentration of its receptor at early incubation times by reducing the accumulation of newly synthesized receptor. In this study, we demonstrate that cholera toxin also reduces the amount of nuclear receptor in GH1 cells in a time- and dose-dependent fashion, without altering the affinity of the receptor for hormone. The reduction of receptor mediated by cholera toxin is not secondary to a generalized inhibition of cell protein synthesis or cell replication rates and this effect can be abolished by pretreatment of the cholera toxin with soluble ganglioside II3-alpha-N- acetylneuraminosylgangliotetraosylceramide . This effect requires an intact cholera toxin molecule and does not occur at similar concentrations of the membrane-binding B subunit of cholera toxin. In order to study the influence of cholera toxin on thyroid hormone receptor turnover, we have used a dense amino acid-labeling technique. The results indicate that cholera toxin does not change the half-life of receptor, but decreases the rate of appearance of newly synthesized receptor. This decreased rate completely accounts for the lowered steady state receptor levels. The extent of cAMP stimulation by cholera toxin does not correlate with the extent of receptor reduction and forskolin, which stimulates cAMP 25- to 500-fold, does not decrease thyroid hormone receptor abundance. These studies suggest that cholera toxin modulates receptor levels by a mechanism(s) that is not mediated by cAMP in GH1 cells. 相似文献

The induction of growth hormone synthesis and mRNA by thyroid hormone in cultured GH1 cells is mediated by the thyroid hormone nuclear receptor. In addition, the regulation of the growth hormone response by glucocorticoid is highly dependent on the action of thyroid hormone. To clarify whether thyroid hormone has a general influence on glucocorticoid action in GH1 cells, the glucocorticoid induction of growth hormone and glutamine synthetase was simultaneously examined. In contrast to the growth hormone response, the induction of glutamine synthetase by glucocorticoid was not influenced by thyroid hormone. Both responses appear to be modulated by the glucocorticoid receptor, and thyroid hormone had no influence on nuclear-associated glucocorticoid receptor levels. These results suggest that the thyroid hormone control of glucocorticoid induction of growth hormone may be a selective process, and the nuclear associated receptors for both thyroid and glucocorticoid hormones interrelate to control the growth hormone response. 相似文献

Phosphorylation of nonhistone proteins during the HeLa cell cycle. Relationship to DNA synthesis and mitotic chromosome condensation 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Cell cycle variations in the phosphorylation of chromatin-associated nonhistones were determined. Cells were radiolabeled with [32P]orthophosphate and chromatin was obtained by mild digestion of nuclei with micrococcal nuclease. The experiments were performed in the presence of a substrate inhibitor of alkaline phosphatase, beta-glycerophosphate. The results show that, while similar molecular weight species of phosphorylated nonhistones are associated with interphase chromatin through the HeLa cell cycle, the incorporation (32P cpm/micrograms of protein) profiles of selected major phosphononhistones show substantial changes. The most prominent peaks of specific radioactivity occur in the DNA synthesis phase (S phase). The phosphorylation states of the proteins of isolated metaphase chromosomes were also determined. Nonhistone proteins of isolated metaphase chromosomes are strikingly dephosphorylated, especially in comparison to histone H1. The phosphorylation of the major phosphononhistone of chromatin, which has a molecular weight of 55,000, was further characterized by techniques that included one-dimensional peptide mapping in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels and nonequilibrium pH gradient slab gel electrophoresis. Phosphoproteins are also components of the nuclear scaffold, and cell cycle variations in these proteins were investigated. The primary phosphorylated species has a molecular weight of 119,000. As with chromatin-associated nonhistones, this nuclear scaffold protein shows substantial incorporation of 32P in S phase, and a high level of incorporation also occurs close to mitosis. 相似文献

Analysis of photoaffinity label derivatives to probe thyroid hormone receptor in human fibroblasts, GH1 cells, and soluble receptor preparations 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The regulation of growth hormone gene expression by thyroid hormone in cultured GH1 cells is mediated by a chromatin-associated receptor. We have previously described a photoaffinity label derivative of 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine (L-T3) in which the alanine side chain was modified to form N-2-diazo-3,3,3-trifluoropropionyl-L-T3 (L-[125I]T3-PAL). On exposure to 254 nm UV light, L-[125I]T3-PAL generates a carbene which covalently modifies two thyroid hormone receptor forms in intact GH1 cells; an abundant 47,000 Mr species and a less abundant 57,000 Mr form. We have now synthesized similar photoaffinity label derivatives of 3,5,3',5'-tetraiodo-L-thyronine (L-T4) and 3,3',5'-triiodo-L-thyronine (L-rT3). Both compounds identify the same receptor forms in intact cells and in nuclear extracts in vitro as L-[125I]T3-PAL. Labeling by L-[125I]rT3-PAL was low and consistent with the very low occupancy of receptor by L-rT3. Underivatized L-[125I]T3 and L-[125I]T4 labeled the same receptor forms at 254 nm but at a markedly lower efficiency than their PAL derivatives. In contrast, N-bromoacetyl-L-[125I]T3, a chemical affinity labeling agent, did not derivatize either receptor form in vitro. The relative efficiency of coupling to receptor at 254 nm was L-[125I]T4-PAL greater than L-[125I]T3-PAL greater than L-[125I]T4 greater than L-[125I]T3. Although L-[125I]T4-PAL has a lower affinity for receptor than L-[125I]T3-PAL, its coupling efficiency was 5-10-fold higher. This suggests that the alanine side chain of L-[125I]T4-PAL is positioned in the ligand binding region near a residue which is efficiently modified by photoactivation. With L-[125I]T4-PAL we were able to identify three different molecular weight receptor species in human fibroblast nuclei. 相似文献

Thyroid hormones have diverse effects on growth and metabolism. Specific "receptor" proteins which bind triiodothyronine and other biologically active analogs and which may be involved in thyroid hormone action have been recently found in nuclei of responsive tissues. This report presents studies of these receptors in rat liver nuclei. Confirming previous reports, a Scatchard analysis of the binding data suggests the reaction, triiodothyronine + specific receptor in equilibrium with triiodothyronine-receptor complex, with an apparent equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) at 22 degrees of about 190 pM and a capacity of about 1 pmol of triiodothyronine-binding sites per mg of DNA. The kinetics of the binding were also examined. Triiodothyronine-receptor complex formation is second order and dissociation is first order. The apparent association (k+1) and dissociation (k minus 1) rate constants at 22 degrees are, respectively, 4.7 times 10-7 m-minus 1 min-minus 1 and 7.6 times 10-minus 3 min-minus 1. The apparent Kd, estimated from the ratio of the rate constants (k minus 1:k+1), was about 150 pM, similar to that determined from the equilibrium data. These data support the expression written above for the interaction of thyroid hormone with its receptor. Additional kinetic experiments indicate that some of the triiodothyronine binding by cell-free nuclei is to sites previously occupied by hormone in the intact animal, providing further evidence that the intact cell and cell-free reactions are the same. It was previously found that nuclear-bound triiodothyronine is localized in chromatin. We found that isolated chromatin retains specific binding activity similar to that of isolated nuclei. Thus, binding may not require cytoplasmic, nucleoplasmic, or nuclear membrane factors. These findings may imply that chromatin localization of the receptor does not depend on the hormone. This idea is supported by an earlier finding that binding activity is present in nuclei from thyroidectomized animals. However, many stimuli such as steroid hormones, bacterial inducers, and cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate in bacteria influence regulatory proteins at the gene level by promoting the protein's addition to or removal from chromatin. Thus, we studied the effect of thyroid hormone on the nuclear content of receptors under assay conditions of receptor stability and reversible binding. Receptor levels in hypothyroid animals are identical with those in euthyroid animals. These data suggest that the hormone does not influence the nuclear localization of receptors. Thus, the basis for thyroid hormone action may be to regulate the activity of receptors resident in chromatin rather than to promote receptor addition to or removal from chromatin. 相似文献

The effect of tyroxin-binding prealbumin (TBPA) of blood serum on the template activity of chromatin was studied. It was found that the values of binding constants of TBPA for T3 and T4 are 2 X 10(-11) M and 5 X 10(-10) M, respectively. The receptors isolated from 0.4 M KCl extract of chromatin and mitochondria as well as hormone-bound TBPA cause similar effects on the template activity of chromatin. Based on experimental results and the previously published comparative data on the structure of TBPA, nuclear, cytoplasmic and mitochondrial receptors of thyroid hormones as well as on translocation across the plasma membrane and intracellular transport of TBPA, a conclusion was drawn, which suggested that TBPA is the "core" of the true thyroid hormone receptor. It was shown that T3-bound TBPA caused histone H1-dependent conformational changes in chromatin. Based on the studies with the interaction of the TBPA-T3 complex with spin-labeled chromatin, a scheme of functioning of the thyroid hormone nuclear receptor was proposed. 相似文献

To further investigate the mechanism by which thyroid hormones regulate target cell function, we have prepared and partially characterized antibodies to highly purified nuclear thyroid hormone-binding proteins (NTBP). NTBPs were prepared from bovine liver nuclear extracts by bio-specific elution from an affinity gel containing immobilized 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3). Antibodies (Ab) raised to NTBP in BALB/c mice were assayed for Ab-NTBP complex formation on HPLC TSK SW3000 molecular exclusion gels and found to be species-specific and non-cross-reactive with serum thyroid hormone-binding proteins. Most of the antibody activity was directed against two fractions of molecular weight (MW) 89 000 and 53 000, which were associated with thyroxine (T4)-binding activity. The 89 000 D T4-binding activity was shifted to a higher MW complex when incubated with specific antibody. Indirect immunofluorescence showed antibody activity against discrete, clumped chromatin sites, nuclear envelope and plasma membrane in hepatocytes. Intense fluorescence was also observed in the cells lining the hepatic sinusoids and in the cytoskeleton of bovine aortic endothelial cells in culture. The data suggest that thyroid hormone target cells contain extranuclear loci that share antigenic sites with NTBP and may also represent specific NTBP-like sites of thyroid hormone binding. 相似文献

Receptors for thyroid hormones were extracted by 0.4 M KCl from the nuclei of rat liver and brain, and their binding properties compared to the properties of these receptors in unextracted nuclear suspensions. The inhibititory effect of a non-iodinated thyroid hormone analogue, 3,5,dimethyl-3′-isopropyl-l-thyronine (DIMIT) on [125I]-T3 binding was observed in the nuclear suspension of brain, but absent when the solubilized receptors of the same organ were tested. The initial properties of the receptor could be restored in a system containing the receptor and the extracted chromatin. Moreover, when the liver solubilized receptor was supplemented with the brain chromatin extract, the hepatic receptor acquired the binding ability of the brain receptors. The data suggest that chromatin associated components may confer organ specificity in thyroid hormone effects, and play a role in the selectivity of the recognition of thyroid hormone analogues by the receptor. 相似文献

A nuclear factor that enhances binding of thyroid hormone receptors to thyroid hormone response elements 总被引:24,自引:0,他引:24
Recent studies from this laboratory have demonstrated the presence of thyroid hormone response elements (TREs) in the 5'-flanking region of the rat alpha and TSH beta subunit genes. Using an avidin-biotin complex DNA binding assay, we have shown that these TREs bind the thyroid hormone (T3) receptor present in nuclear extracts of GH3 cells, as well as the in vitro synthesized Hc-erbA beta, which has been identified as a member of the family of T3 receptors. The binding of Hc-erbA beta to the alpha subunit TRE can be enhanced 3-4-fold by including GH3 nuclear extract in the binding assay. Binding to the TRE present in the TSH beta gene or the rat growth hormone gene was similarly enhanced, although to a lesser degree. The enhanced binding activity is trypsin-sensitive and heat labile, and is not reproduced by the addition of histones, bovine serum albumin, or cytosol instead of nuclear extract. Gel exclusion chromatography suggests a molecular size of approximately 65,000 Da. This protein, which is present in several different cell types, is also able to complement binding of the rat erbA alpha-1 and the pituitary-specific erbA beta-2 forms of the receptor. These data suggest that the binding of the T3 receptor to a TRE is augmented by another nuclear protein, which may be involved in the mechanism of action of thyroid hormone. 相似文献

Thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) and epidermal growth factor induce the rapid phosphorylation of a basic, chromatin-associated protein present in GH4 rat pituitary cells and also found in primary hepatocyte culture. Cell fraction experiments indicate a nucleolar localization for this basic, chromatin-associated protein. The protein has been purified to homogeneity from rat liver and 23 amino acids of its N-terminal sequence determined. There is complete homology between the sequenced portion of the basic, chromatin-associated protein and the N-terminal sequence of rat ribosomal protein S6. In vivo and in vitro phosphorylation, two-dimensional gel analysis and two-dimensional tryptic phosphopeptide mapping support the identity of the basic, chromatin-associated protein and S6. Our experimental data indicate the existence of a nuclear pool of S6 whose phosphorylation is hormone inducible. 相似文献

The estrogen receptor of MCF-7 cells labeled with high specific activity estradiol was used to mark the chromatin binding sites for this regulatory molecule. Many of these sites are especially sensitive to nuclease, and produce on digestion a series of uniquely sedimenting products. Several of these have been examined in some detail in this paper. These include a form of receptor that sediments in trace digests at 9S but in more extensive digests at 7S, fast mononucleosomes of about 12.5S, and a species at 15S. Two components of digests, fast mononucleosomes and dinucleosomes were isolated and subjected to further digestion. Much of the hormone on these isolated particles was found to be sensitive to additional hydrolysis, although some was nuclease resistant. It appears that a major fraction of the hormone receptor complexes bound to MCF-7 cell chromatin occurs at nucleosome-free regions which can be detected as transient hydrolysis intermediates. 相似文献
