The effect of Zn(II) on the association of thyroid and glucocorticoid hormone receptors with chromatin was studied in chromatin from cultured GC cells. Chromatin was incubated at 0-4 degrees C in 20 mM Tris, pH 7.4. When buffers contained 0.15 M NaCl, the release of T3 receptors from chromatin was time-dependent; 50% of T3 receptors were released after 30 min incubation. Receptor release appeared relatively specific since less than 10% of chromatin protein and DNA, and less than 13% of chromatin zinc were released under these conditions. Addition of Zn(II) inhibited receptor release; one-half maximal inhibition occurred at 1 microM ZnCl2. Cd(II) and to a lesser extent Co(II) had similar but smaller effects. Addition of EDTA prevented this effect of Zn(II); EDTA alone enhanced receptor release. Zn(II) also inhibited the release of glucocorticoid receptors from chromatin in similar incubations. Our findings suggest that Zn(II) increases the association of hormone receptors with chromatin and, thereby, may influence receptor function. 相似文献

An assay procedure for thyroid hormone receptor activity which used nitrocellulose membrane filters was developed. Receptor proteins, extracted from washed rat liver nuclei with a 0.4 M NaCl solution, were incubated with 125I-labeled thyroid hormone (T3), and filtered on the cellulose ester membranes under suction at 2 degrees C. The filters were subsequently washed with cold buffer and counted for 125I radioactivity. The method allowed an accurate estimation of the receptor activity, satisfying a linear relationship between the activity and the receptor protein concentrations. The usefulness of this filter-binding method became evident when it was compared with the conventional procedure that employs Sephadex G-25 columns. For practical application to routine assays, various filtration conditions were examined, and a standard procedure was established. Using this technique, the isolated receptors were determined to possess an apparent Kd of 1.38 X 10(-10) M and a pH optimum of T3 binding at 8.2-8.4. 相似文献

It is well established that in vivo administered labelled TBPA penetrates into liver, brain and lung cells, is translocated from cytosol into the nucleus and is accepted by chromatin without being affected by modifications touching upon the antigenic determinants of this protein. Electron microscopic autoradiography demonstrated that 125I-TBPA translocated from cytosol into the nucleus is localized on the border between hetero- and euchromatin. The data obtained may serve as an additional proof of the universal structure of intracellular thyroid hormone receptors and suggest that TBPA participate in manifestation of genetic effects of thyroid hormones. 相似文献

Thyroid hormone nuclear receptor molecules have been characterized as proteins of approximately 49,000 molecular weight existing in cells attached to chromatin and with 4000-8000 copies per nucleus. They bind T3 with Ka of 0.2 X 10(10) l/mol and show microheterogeneity on isoelectric focusing. Hormone responsiveness varies with receptor content in the nucleus and occupancy of receptor by T3. Recent investigations have shown that the receptors are part of the v-erbA related super family of nuclear hormone receptors. At least two types of T3 receptors (TR) exist, one coded by a gene on chromosome 3 (TR beta) and a second coded on chromosome 17 (hTR alpha). Receptors are low in the fetus and, in the adult, are dramatically reduced by starvation, illness and glucagon. Receptors function through binding of T3 or other hormone analogs to a domain in the carboxyl portion of the protein, and binding of the receptor-T3 complex through 'DNA-fingers' to specific response elements as enhancers and located in the 5'-flanking DNA of thyroid hormone responsive genes. Extensive studies on regulation of rat growth hormone have suggested binding of receptor or associated factors to several positions in the 5'-flanking DNA, and recent studies suggest that a crucial area may be a 15 bp segment between bases -179 and -164. Abnormal receptors are believed to be responsible for the syndrome of generalized resistance to thyroid hormone action, but it is yet unclear as to which form (or forms) of the receptor is abnormal in this syndrome. 相似文献

The subcellular distribution of 125I-T3 was studied in calf thyroid slices, under the same experimental conditions where T3 inhibits protein and RNA synthesis, labelled hormone was found mainly in the 20,000 X g supernatant. The specificity of each subcellular localization was determined by incubating the slices with 10(-5)M T3. Only in the purified nuclei a significant decrease was found, indicating a specific localization of the labelled hormone. When slices were incubated with 125I both labelled T3 and T4 were found in purified nuclei, indicating that endogenously synthesized hormones can reach thyroid nuclei. Purified thyroid nuclei were incubated with labelled T3 and increasing amounts of cold hormone. Specific binding reached a plateau after 90 min of incubation at 20 degrees C. When the displacement curves were analysed by a Scatchard plot a binding site with a Ka of 5.2 X 10(7) M-1 and a capacity of 3.0 X 10(-15) moles/microgram DNA was observed. Digestion of nuclei with trypsin and protease abolished completely the binding of 125I-T3 thus indicating the protein nature of the receptor. The hormone-receptor complex could be extracted with 0.4M KCI and eluted in the void volume after Sephadex G-25 column chromatography, similar to peripheral tissues nuclear T3 receptors. The present studies provide the first evidence for the existence of nuclear receptors for T3 in the thyroid, an event probably related to the autoregulatory mechanism. 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

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

The thyroid hormone-disrupting activity of tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA), a flame retardant, and related compounds was examined. TBBPA, tetrachlorobisphenol A (TCBPA), tetramethylbisphenol A (TMBPA) and 3,3'-dimethylbisphenol A (DMBPA) markedly inhibited the binding of triiodothyronine (T3; 1 x 10(-10) M) to thyroid hormone receptor in the concentration range of 1 x 10(-7)-1 x 10(-4) M, while bisphenol A and 2,2-diphenylpropane were inactive. TBBPA, TCBPA, TMBPA and DMBPA did not exhibit thyroid hormonal activity in a thyroid hormone-responsive reporter assay using a Chinese hamster ovary cell line (CHO-K1) transfected with thyroid hormone receptor alpha1 or beta1, but TBBPA and TCBPA showed significant anti-thyroid hormone effects on the activity of T3 (1 x 10(-8) M) in the concentration range of 3 x 10(-6) - 5 x 10(-5) M. The thyroid hormone-disrupting activity of TBBPA was also examined in terms of the effect on amphibian metamorphosis stimulated by thyroid hormone. TBBPA in the concentration range of 1 x 10(-8) to 1 x 10(-6) M showed suppressive action on T3 (5 x 10(-8) M)-enhancement of Rana rugosa tadpole tail shortening. These facts suggest that TBBPA, TCBPA, TMBPA and DMBPA can act as thyroid hormone-disrupting agents. 相似文献

The thyroid hormonal-disrupting activity of the flame retardants tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) and tetrachlorobisphenol A (TCBPA) was examined and compared with that of bisphenol A, a typical estrogenic xenobiotic. TBBPA and TCBPA, halogenated derivatives of bisphenol A, markedly inhibited the binding of triiodothyronine (T(3); 1 x 10(-10) M) to thyroid hormone receptor in the concentration range of 1 x 10(-6) to 1 x 10(-4) M, but bisphenol A did not. The thyroid hormonal activity of TBBPA and TCBPA was also examined using rat pituitary cell line GH3 cells, which grow and release growth hormone (GH) depending on thyroid hormone. TBBPA and TCBPA enhanced the proliferation of GH3 cells and stimulated their production of GH in the concentration range of 1 x 10(-6) to 1 x 10(-4) M, while bisphenol A was inactive. TBBPA, TCBPA, and bisphenol A did not show antagonistic action, i.e., these compounds did not inhibit the hormonal activity of T(3) to induce growth and GH production of GH3 cells. TBBPA and TCBPA, as well as bisphenol A, enhanced the proliferation of MtT/E-2 cells, whose growth is estrogen-dependent. These results suggest that TBBPA and TCBPA act as thyroid hormone agonists, as well as estrogens. 相似文献

A nuclear subfraction containing bound estrogen receptor in presumed complex with its nuclear acceptor site has been partially purified from hen oviduct. Sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation was used to separate mechanically sheared chromatin (i.e. lysed nuclei) into several fractions which differed in protein to DNA ratio as well as in vitro template activity. Gradient fractions were then examined for the presence of bound estrogen receptors. Care was taken to use physiological ionic strength buffers when preparing nuclei since the number of estrogen receptors per nucleus decreased from 5600 to 1600 when nuclei prepared in low ionic strength (mu = 0.013 M) were compared with nuclei prepared in physiological ionic strength (mu = 0.2 M). [3H]Estradiol was introduced into nuclear estrogen receptors by exposing minced oviduct to labeled hormone in tissue culture or by exchanging nuclear estrogen receptor complexes formed in vivo with labeled hormone. In all cases, receptor was found in a fast sedimenting nuclear subfraction of low in vitro template activity. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis revealed no differences between proteins from receptor-containing and slower sedimenting fractions. Hybrdization experiments using a cDNA probe made from ovalbumin mRNA indicated no enrichment of this gene in DNA from receptor-containing nuclear material. Salt-extracted nuclear estrogen receptor was shown to partially aggregate to fast sedimenting species of heterogeneous size when sedimented in gradients containing low salt concentrations. Bound receptors were distinguished from such receptor aggregates using a novel electrophoresis technique. In addition, receptor aggregates could be disrupted in high salt, while bound receptors were resistant to this treatment. The number of exchangeable nuclear estrogen receptors in immature chicks given secondary estrogen stimulation was compared with birds that had been withdrawn from hormone. The number of receptors per nucleus was shown to be higher in animals given secondary stimulation, and these receptors were associated exclusively with fast sedimenting nuclear material. 相似文献

Further experimentation with the steer thyroid cell line indicates that the formation of "follicles" is enhanced by exposure to 8.9 X 10(-7) M thyroxine (T4) or triiodothyronine (T3) for 96 hr. The production of mucosubstances by the cultured thyroid cells is also increased by treating with T4 or T3, effects demonstrable after staining with PAS-alcian blue at pH 2.5. It is suggested that these in vitro effects bear on morphological organization and synthetic activity of the thyroid gland as well as on autoregulation and intraglandular homeostasis that may occur in situ. 相似文献

Thyroid hormone nuclear receptor levels are influenced by the acetylation of chromatin-associated proteins 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

The thyroid hormone receptor is a chromatin-associated protein which appears to mediate the actions of the thyroid hormones in mammalian cells. Unlike steroid hormone receptors, a cytoplasmic form of the receptor has not been identified, and the factors which govern the nuclear concentrations of the receptor are poorly understood. Using cultured GH1 cells, a rat pituitary cell line, we having previously demonstrated that thyroid hormones reduces the concentration of its receptor by a mechanism which involves the association of the ligand with the receptor binding site (Samuels, H.H., Stanley, F., and Shapiro, L.E. (1977) J. Biol. Chem. 252, 6052-6060). In this study, we demonstrate that n-butyrate and other aliphatic carboxylic acids elicit a reduction of thyroid hormone nuclear receptor levels without altering total cell protein synthetic rates. In contrast, the nuclear association and total cell level of the glucocorticoid receptor is not altered by n-butyrate. Evidence is presented that the aliphatic carboxylic acid-mediated reduction of thyroid hormone nuclear receptor levels is secondary to the inhibitory effect of these compounds on chromatin-associated deacetylases which is reflected as an increase in the acetylation of the nucleosome core histones. Isokinetic gradient centrifugation of chromatin solubilized from GH1 cell nuclei by micrococcal nuclease indicates that the receptor exists as a form associated with high molecular weight chromatin, as a 12.5 S form that sediments slightly faster than the bulk of the mononucleosomes, and as a 6.5 S form which appears to remain associated with low molecular weight chromatin components. Exclusive of the receptor associated with the high molecular weight chromatin, the 6.5 S form represents 80% and the 12.5 S form 10% of the receptor resolved in the gradient. n-Butyrate decreases both forms to the same degree suggesting that they are generated from the same "entity" of chromatin structure. Studies on the reappearance of receptor after restoration of the chromatin to the "normal" acetylated state are consistent with a model in which the affinity of chromatin for newly synthesized receptor is diminished in the "hyperacetylated" state. 相似文献

Bovine thyroid cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase was purified by DEAE-Sephadex and Sephadex G-200 chromatography. This preparation showed a 240-fold increase in specific activity over the initial 20,000 x g supernatant with histone as substrate and 1 micronM cyclic AMP in the assay mixture. In the presence of 2.5 X 10(-5)M L-triiodothyronine (T3), protein kinase activity was significantly reduced; 50% inhibition was achieved at 1 X 10(-4) M. Tests of diverse thyroid hormone analogs showed that T3 and its derivatives were more potent inhibitors than T4 and its derivatives which, in turn, were more potent than thyronine or diiodothyronine. Mono- and diiodotyrosine, tyrosine, and iodide were without effect. Triiodothyronine did not inhibit kidney, spleen, or lung protein kinase activity. The magnitude of the inhibition was the same whether or not cyclic AMP (1 micronM) was present in the incubation mixture, suggesting an effect on the catalytic, rather than the regulatory subunit of the enzyme. The inhibition of protein kinase by thyroid hormone was not influenced by Mg++ concentration but was overcome in a competitive manner by increasing ATP concentration. Increasing the histone concentration did not modify the inhibition. Although these studies suggest a novel cellular control mechanism, the high thyroid hormone concentrations required and the lack of concordance between inhibitory effects and biologic activity of the analogs tested precludes assumption of physiologic relevance. 相似文献
