Abstract:
:The GH4C1 pituitary cell line, an excellent model for a thyroid hormone action study, was used for determination of the relationship between thyroid hormone receptor occupancy and intensity of cell proliferation, prolactin (PRL) production, thyrotropin (TSH) inhibition and 3,5,3,-L-triiodothyronine (T3) receptor down-regulation. Nuclear receptor population was progressively occupied by T3 in concentrations ranging from 0.025 to 10.0 nM T3. Bmax ranged from 0.029 fmol/10(6) cells at the lowest T3 concentration to Bmax = 12.51 fmol/10(6) cells at the highest concentration. Each of the observed biological events is operative within distinct dose-response ranges in cultured GH4C1 cells. The maximal biological response (except the TSH inhibition and T3 receptor down-regulation) does not require the occupation of the whole nuclear receptor population by T3 and the intensity of none of the responses studied was directly proportional to thyroid hormone receptor occupancy.
