A thyroid binding peripheral membrane protein(s) has been characterized in human red cell. Two classes of affinity sites for triiodothyronine have been demonstrated. The high affinity, low capacity site showed values for dissociation constant of 2 X 10(-10)M. The binding activity depended on the presence of free -SH group and showed a high stereospecificity for L-triiodothyronine, L-thyroxine was less potent (about 1,000-fold) than L-triiodothyronine in competing for this site. The results are discussed with respect to their cellular significance. 相似文献

There is a good correlation between changes in malic enzyme activity and immunoreactive protein in both hepatic and brown adipose tissue during postnatal development of the rat. Furthermore, the previously observed premature appearance of hepatic malic enzyme during the suckling period, in response to triiodothyronine, can also be achieved through dichloroacetate administration. A combination of triiodothyronine and dichloroacetate induces malic enzyme activity and immunoreactive protein in a synergistic manner, indicating different sites of action in the control of synthesis of hepatic malic enzyme although neither agent was found to affect the level of malic enzyme in brown adipose tissue. There is evidence to suggest that changes in the ability of the liver to express malic enzyme in response to triiodothyronine administration occur early in postnatal life. 相似文献

Hepatocytes isolated from normal adult rats were cultured under serum-free conditions. Induction of mitochondrial alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase) (EC 1.1.99.5; sn-glycerol-3-phosphate: (acceptor) oxidoreductase) and cytosolic malic enzyme (EC 1.1.1.40; L-malate-NADP+ oxidoreductase (decarboxylating)) by 3,3'-5-triiodo-L-thyronine (triiodothyronine) in the culture medium follows the same time course as the in vivo response to thyroid hormones. The addition of 1 microM cycloheximide blocks the triiodothyronine response. Thyroxine is also capable of stimulating the activities of both enzymes. Although increases in alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase and malic enzyme activities are observed when triiodothyronine is added to the culture medium for 3 days (62% and 36%, respectively), in the presence of insulin and cortisol the response is significantly greater. Dexamethasone is more potent than cortisol in increasing triiodothyronine action. In the presence of bovine serum albumin, to prevent metabolism of triiodothyronine, hepatocytes show increased enzyme activity at concentrations as low as 10(-10) M triiodothyronine. 相似文献

The capacity of iodotyrosines and iodothyronine analogues to displace tracer[125I] L-3,5,3′ triiodothyronine from specific nuclear binding sites in rat liver and heart was related to the displacement capacity of nonradioactive triiodothyronine. Iodotyrosines and L-3,3′,5′ triiodothyronine (“reverse T3”) were devoid of displacement activity. Analogues with 3,5 substitution in the “inner” ring and single “bulk” substitution in the 3′ position in the phenolic ring exhibited the strongest displacement activity. When the distribution, fractional removal rates and metabolic conversion of the analogues were taken into account, displacement activity appeared to correlate well with the reported thyromimetic activity. These results support the biologic relevance of the nuclear sites. 相似文献

The dynamics of the induction of nuclear tri-iodothyronine receptors and mitochondrial alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase were studied in rat liver after a single injection of tri-iodothyronine. The maximal binding capacity (C(max.)) and association constant (K(a)) of the nuclear receptors were determined by Scatchard analyses with and without correction for the endogenous tri-iodothyronine measured by radioimmunoassay. The administration of tri-iodothyronine induced sequential increases in the concentration of nuclear receptors and alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase activity in the liver. The nuclear-receptor concentration was increased to 2.5 times that in the hypothyroid rat 1 day after the administration of hormone, and then decreased, with a half-life of about 2 days. alpha-Glycerophosphate dehydrogenase activity changed in parallel with the nuclear-receptor concentration, showing a delayed response. The total amount of non-histone protein in the liver was significantly increased 3 days after the administration. It seems likely therefore that the tri-iodothyronine-induced increase in nuclear-receptor concentration is responsible, at least in part, for the induction of this enzyme. The possibility is also suggested that nuclear receptors may be one of the non-histone proteins selectively synthesized at an early stage of the hormonal stimulation. Throughout the time course, the K(a) values of the nuclear receptors for tri-iodothyronine remained unchanged, when corrected for endogenous tri-iodothyronine bound to the non-histone proteins, although they were apparently changed when the correction was not made. The results obtained provide further evidence for hormonal modulation of the nuclear receptors which is closely linked with the hormonal effect. 相似文献

Two orders of saturable binding sites for L-triiodothyronine were found on washed rat erythrocyte membranes. The high affinity, low capacity site showed values of Kd 0.19 X 10(-10) M. This value was in the range of concentration of free L-triiodothyronine found in the plasma and was several orders of magnitude higher than the Kd values previously reported for other L-triiodothyronine membrane-binding systems. The binding site also showed a high stereospecificity for L-triiodothyronine. D-3,5,3'-triiodothyronine and L-thyroxine were less potent (about 1000-fold) than L-triiodothyronine in competing for these sites. L-3,3,5'-triiodothyronine and triiodothyroacetic acid were inactive. The physiological relevance of this site is considered. 相似文献

In mature animals, thyroid hormone produces parallel up-regulation of beta-adrenergic receptor binding sites and their linkage to adenylate cyclase; during development, these same processes may be critical in establishing the set-point for subsequent adrenergic reactivity. In the current study, we administered triiodothyronine to neonatal rats for the first five days postpartum and evaluated [125I]pindolol binding capabilities and adenylate cyclase activity in membrane preparations from heart and kidney. In the heart, hyperthyroidism elicited an initial increase in receptor density, with subsequent deficits and an eventual return to normal values by young adulthood. In contrast, the ability of isoproterenol, a beta-adrenergic agonist, to stimulate adenylate cyclase was enhanced regardless of whether receptor numbers were increased or decreased; the same effects were also present for basal adenylate cyclase activity and non-receptor-mediated stimulation by forskolin. Enhanced cyclase activity involved both increases in the magnitude of response as well as accelerated onset of the postweaning peak of enzyme activity, results which suggest a direct impact of thyroid status on the ontogenetic expression of adenylate cyclase itself. The kidney, which possesses less efficient beta-receptor coupling to adenylate cyclase in the neonate, was less drastically affected by triiodothyronine for either beta-receptor binding sites or enzyme activity. As we had previously shown that neonatal hyperthyroidism uncouples beta-receptors from growth-related enzymes, such as ornithine decarboxylase, we also evaluated whether the promotion of adenylate cyclase responses was mechanistically linked to effect on ornithine decarboxylase; administration of cyclic AMP analogs to 5 days-old rats led to inhibition of the enzyme in the heart, whereas the same treatment in 9 days-old animals was ineffective. These data suggest that thyroid hormone differentially regulates the development of beta-receptors as well as adenylate cyclase and ornithine decarboxylase, with preferential effects on tissues, such as the heart, that already possess efficient linkage of the receptors to cell transduction mechanisms at birth. 相似文献

The interaction of thyroid hormones with rat liver nuclear matrix proteins was studied. It was shown that the nuclear matrix contains the sites which bind triiodothyronine with a high affinity (Ka = 1.07 X 10(9) M-1) and limited capacity (maximal binding capacity--28.5 fmol triiodothyronine/100 micrograms protein). Electrophoretic analysis of triiodothyronine-binding matrix proteins revealed that the molecular mass of the major triiodothyronine-binding fraction is 50 000-52 000 Da. Injections of triiodothyronine to thyroidectomized animals stimulated the phosphorylation of all protein fractions of the nuclear matrix. 相似文献

Selenium (Se) deficiency for 5 weeks in rats produced changes in the activity of a number of hepatic, renal and plasma enzymes. In animals whose food intake was restricted to 75% of normal for 2 weeks, Se deficiency produced significant increases in the activity of hepatic cytosolic 'malic' enzyme and mitochondrial alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (GPD), two enzymes that are particular sensitive to the thyroid-hormone concentrations in tissue. Propylthiouracil-induced hypothyroidism produced significant decreases in 'malic' enzyme and GPD activities. The effect of hypothyroidism on the activity of 'malic' enzyme, GPD and other enzymes studied in liver and plasma was often opposite to that seen in Se deficiency. Glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity was increased by both Se deficiency and hypothyroidism, but in hypothyroid animals further significant increases in GST were produced by Se deficiency. These data suggest that the changes in enzyme expression observed in Se deficiency are not caused by decreased tissue exposure to thyroid hormones. 相似文献

The present preliminary data obtained from intact fibroblasts of adult mice (polyploid stem L 929) suggest that this cell system possesses high-affinity and saturable nuclear binding sites for triiodothyronine. As estimated by the Scatchard analysis, the equilibrium dissociation constant is approximately 2 X 10(-10) moles, the maximal binding capacity is about 2 000 sites for T3 per cell nucleus. 相似文献

Effects of fasting-refeeding regimens were studied in genetically obese hyperglycemic mice and their thin littermates to ascertain the possible existence of a differential response. Animals were killed after a 48-hr fast followed by 24, 48, and 72 hr of refeeding with laboratory pellets plus either 15% glucose or 15% glycerol in the drinking water. In addition, obese mice were fasted 96 hr followed by 144 hr of refeeding. In adipose tissue of fasted-refed thin mice, activities of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49), malic enzyme (EC 1.1.1.40), alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.8), lactic dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27), and also glycogen content were increased over control values. In fasted-refed obese mice, neither significant changes in the activities of these enzymes nor glycogen content were observed. In alloxan-treated thin mice, adipose tissue glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity was decreased, while in identically treated obese animals, only alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase activity was increased. The concept that an impaired “adaptive enzyme” response is a significant aspect of the obese state is suggested by these data. 相似文献

Effects of triiodothyronine treatment on (Na+,K+)-ATPase in the brain, liver, kidney, and skeletal muscle were studied in the rat. The number of (Na+,K+)-ATPase units in the particulate fractions obtained from deoxycholate-treated homogenates was estimated from the concentration of [3H]ouabain binding sites assayed with a labeled drug-displacement method. The concentration of [3H]ouabain binding sites was highest in the brain tissue, intermediate in the kidney, and relatively low in the liver and skeletal muscle. The affinity of the binding sites for ouabain was highest in the brain, intermediate in the skeletal muscle, low in the kidney, and lowest in the liver. Triiodothyronine treatment increased the [3H]ouabain binding site concentration in the liver, kidney, and skeletal muscle but failed to affect it in the brain. Affinity of the binding sites for ouabain was unchanged by the triiodothyronine treatment in all tissues studied. These data indicate that triiodothyronine treatment of rats results in an increased tissue concentration of (Na+,K+)-ATPase in the liver, kidney, and skeletal muscle, but not in the brain. These changes do not accompany marked changes in the characteristics of the enzyme. 相似文献

Methimazole (MMI) and propylthiouracil (PTU) are widely used for the treatment of Graves' disease. However, no studies have been reported on the action of these drugs on binding of L-triiodothyronine (T3) to the nuclear receptor. T3 receptors of rat liver nuclei, prepared by differential centrifugation, were extracted with 0.4 M KCl and 5 mM dithiothreitol (DTT). In the assessment of T3 binding to the DTT-reduced receptor, the hepatic nuclear extract was chromatographed on Superose 6 to remove DTT and isolate proteins of relative mass approximately 50,000 (chromatographed nuclear receptors (CNRs)), prior to the addition of [125I]T3 of high specific activity (3300 microCi/micrograms; 1 Ci = 37 GBq). MMI or PTU at 2 mM reduced specific T3 binding to CNR by 84% and 85%, respectively. The inhibitory effects of these reagents and 2 mM sodium arsenite (which complexes dithiols) were additive. Scatchard analyses indicated that neither MMI nor PTU (at 2 mM) significantly altered the affinity constant (Ka) (from 2.41 x 10(9) to 1.74 x 10(9) M-1 for PTU and 1.79 x 10(9) M-1 for MMI), while they both decreased (p less than 0.02) maximal binding capacity (from 0.36 +/- 0.02 to 0.19 +/- 0.02 pmol/mg protein for MMI and 0.17 +/- 0.02 pmol/mg protein for PTU). Dose-response curves showed that 50% inhibition was attained at 0.6 mM PTU or 1.0 mM MMI with approximately 25% inhibition by both at 0.1 mM. Artefactual binding effects by MMI and PTU on [125I]T3 were excluded by chromatography experiments. Similar results were obtained using nuclear receptors prepared from livers of hyperthyroid rats.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 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

Starvation of male rats during 48 hours causes a marked reduction of serum thyroxine, serum triiodothyronine, and liver nuclear triiodothyronine content. Liver nuclear receptors capacity for binding of triiodothyronine was reduced, in contrast to thyro-previc hypothyroidism in which binding capacity is normal. DNA-dependent RNA polymerase activities were reduced. In contrast to typical hypothyroidism, serum thyrotropin was low. This form of pituitary non-responsive hypothyroidism may represent a selective response to caloric and/or amino acid deprivation. 相似文献

The number of binding sites for L-triiodothyronine in rat erythrocyte membranes was increased 2-fold by incubation at 37 degrees C for 60 min. An increase of approximately 3-fold was found when the incubation was carried out at 50 degrees C. The proteinase inhibitor phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride abolished the effect. Similar increments in the number of binding sites were obtained by treatment of the membranes with proteinases. The Kd values (0.09 X 10(-10) M and 3.6 X 10(-10) M for the high-affinity and the low-affinity binding sites, respectively) remained unchanged after the treatment, as did the free-SH group requirements, storage stability and stereospecificity. Our results suggest that endogenous proteolytic activity could be involved in the increase of the number of membrane latent sites for L-triiodothyronine. 相似文献
