Retinoic Acid Regulation of Thyroid Hormone Action in Bone Cells
<p>Retinoic acid and thyroid hormone are known to play key roles in the regulation of endochondral ossification. However, the issue of whether these two hormones interact with each other to regulate bone functions remains to be established. We investigated how thyroid hormone and retinoic acid …

Thyroid hormones and their receptor gene expression as biomarkers of endocrine disruption in harbour seals (Phoca vitulina)
… whether current levels of POP are affecting thyroid hormone physiology of free-ranging harbour seals (Phoca vitulina) in British Columbia (BC), Canada and Washington State (WA), U.S.A. TH functions mainly by binding to nuclear thyroid hormone receptors (TRs) in target tissues and modulating …

Control of major histocompatibility Class I antigen expression in adenovirus transformed cells.
… are members of the ER/TR subfamily of steroid/thyroid hormone receptors. Members of this subfamily have the sequence AGGTCA conserved in their binding sites; this sequence formed part of the area of protection found on the DNase I footprint.The mechanism of nuclear induction of NF-kappaB was …

Characterization of GAR22 function in the regulation of red blood cell differentiation and cell migration
Thyroid hormone receptors (TRs) are ligand-dependent transcription factors that have a major impact on erythroid cell development. In this study, I have investigated the influence of TR activity on red blood cell gene expression and identified TR target genes by employing a genome-wide approach …

Regulation of Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase 4 by Thyroid Hormone / Role of Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptor Gamma Coactivator-1 alpha and Ccaat Enhancer Binding Protein
… reported that PDK4 gene expression is induced by thyroid hormone (T3). These studies did not investigate the mechanisms by which T3 regulated PDK4 gene expression. I have examined the role of the thyroid hormone receptor (TR), transcriptional coactivators especially the peroxisome proliferator …

Preneoplastic hepatocyte hypothyroidism underlies hepatocellular carcinoma progression
Thyroid hormones elicit many cellular and metabolic effects. Most of them are mediated by the thyroid hormone 3,5,3’-L-triiodothyronine (T3) nuclear receptors (THRs), which act as transcription factors. THRs have also been implicated in tumorigenesis, although it is unclear whether they act as …

Effekt von Amiodaron auf periphere Parameter der Schilddrüsenhormonaktivität bei kardiologischen Patienten mit AICD
Amiodaron ist ein hochpotentes Antiarrhythmikum, welches bei schweren, therapieresistenten ventrikulären Arrhythmien, aber auch bei Vorhofflimmern und Reentrytachykardien eingesetzt wird. Bezüglich des antiarrhythmogenen Effektes findet sich eine Verlängerung der Repolarisationszeit, wie bei …
