The role of transducin β-like 1 X-linked receptor 1 (TBL1XR1) in thyroid hormone metabolism and action in mice
Transducin β-like 1 X-linked receptor 1 (TBL1XR1) is a WD40 repeat-containing protein and part of the corepressor complex SMRT/NCoR that binds to the thyroid hormone receptor (TR). We recently described a mutation in TBL1XR1 in patients with Pierpont syndrome. A mouse model bearing this Tbl1xr1 muta...

description | Transducin β-like 1 X-linked receptor 1 (TBL1XR1) is a WD40 repeat-containing protein and part of the corepressor complex SMRT/NCoR that binds to the thyroid hormone receptor (TR). We recently described a mutation in TBL1XR1 in patients with Pierpont syndrome. A mouse model bearing this Tbl1xr1 mutation (Tbl1xr1Y446C/Y446C) displays several aspects of the Pierpont phenotype. Although serum thyroid hormone (TH) concentrations were unremarkable in these mice, tissue TH action might be affected due to the role of TBL1XR1 in the SMRT/NCoR corepressor complex. The aim of the present study was to evaluate tissue TH metabolism and action in a variety of tissues of Tbl1xr1Y446C/Y446C mice. We studied the expression of genes involved in TH metabolism and action in tissues of naïve Tbl1xr1Y446C/Y446C mice and wild type (WT) mice. In addition, we measured deiodinase activity in liver (Dio1 and Dio3), kidney (Dio1 and Dio3) and BAT (Dio2). No striking differences were observed in the liver, hypothalamus, muscle and BAT between Tbl1xr1Y446C/Y446C and WT mice. Pituitary TRα1 mRNA expression was lower in Tbl1xr1Y446C/Y446C mice compared to WT, while the mRNA expression of Tshβ and the positively T3-regulated gene Nmb were significantly increased in mutant mice. Interestingly, Mct8 expression was markedly higher in WAT and kidney of mutants, resulting in (subtle) changes in T3-regulated gene expression in both WAT and kidney. In conclusion, mice harboring a mutation in TBL1XR1 display minor changes in cellular TH metabolism and action. TH transport via MCT8 might be affected as the expression is increased in WAT and kidney. The mechanisms involved need to be clarified. |
