Administration of three successive doses of triiodothyronine (T3) (50 micrograms/100 g body wt), given on alternate days to thyroidectomized and euthyroid rats, stimulated oxygen consumption (QO2) and Na+ transport-dependent respiration (QO2 [5]) in the stripped jejunal mucosa, a preparation that consisted mostly of epithelial cells. The increase in QO2(t) accounted for 57% of the increment in QO2 in the transition from the hypothyroid to the euthyroid state and for 29% of the increment in the transition from the euthyroid to the hyperthyroid state. Administration of T3 to hypothyroid rats also increased the yield of epithelial cells. Injection of T3 into thyroidectomized and euthyroid rats increased the specific activity (at Vmax) of the (Na+ + K+)-dependent
adenosine triphosphatase
(NaK-
ATPase
) in jejunal crude membrane preparations. No significant change was recorded in the activity of Mg-
ATPase
in the same preparation. The ratio of QO2/NaK-
ATPase
and QO2(t)/NaK-
ATPase
in the various thyroid states remained constant, indicating proportionate increased in the respiratory and enzymatic indices. The effect of administration of T3 to thyroidectomized rats on the number of NaK-
ATPase
units (recovered in the crude membrane preparation) was estimated by: (a) Na+ + Mg++ + ATP-dependent binding of [3H]-ouabain to crude membrane fractions, and (b) the amount of the phosphorylated intermediate formed in the NaK-
ATPase
reaction from AT32P(gamma). Estimates were obtained of the maximal number of [3H]ouabain binding sites (Nm) and dissociation constants (Kd). Nm for [3H]ouabain and Nak-
ATPase
specific activity increased to about the same extent after T3 administration to thyroidectomized rats, with no change in the apparent Kd values. The amount of phosphorylated intermediate formed in jejunal crude membrane preparations also increased significantly. Thus,
thyroid hormone
administration may increase the number of active Na+pump sites in the plasma membrane. The apparent increase in the number of Na+ pump sites also correlated with the hormone dependent increases in QO2 and QO2(t).

1. Surgical thyroidectomy decreased specific [3H]-ouabain binding to heart ventricular microsomes by 43% and gastrocnemius muscle microsomes by 34%. Administration of triiodothyronine to euthyroid rats enhanced specific [3H]-ouabain binding to heart and skeletal muscle membrane by 60% and 33% respectively. 2. Treatment of thyroidectomized rats with triiodothyronine increased specific [3H]-ouabain binding by 44% in skeletal muscle membrane preparation and 428% in cardiac microsomes. 3. Specific [3H]-ouabain binding decreased by 55% in heart and 53% in gastrocnemius muscle preparations following chemical sympathectomy with 6-hydroxydopamine. 4. Treatment with triiodothyronine of euthyroid rats which had been sympathectomized did not significantly alter specific [3H]-ouabain binding to heart or skeletal muscle membrane preparations. 5. Administration of triiodothyronine to thyroidectomized and sympathectomized rats increased specific [3H]-ouabain binding by 80% in heart and 83% in skeletal muscle membrane preparations. 6. These results suggest that triiodothyronine may influence specific [3H]-ouabain binding to
thyroid hormone
nonresponsive tissue such as sympathetic nerve endings. Therefore, the present observations are incompatible with the hypothesis that induction of (Na+ +K+)-
adenosine triphosphatase
of skeletal muscle membrane is the molecular mechanism for the calorigenic actions of thyroid hormones.

During postnatal life, many contractile and electrophysiological properties of the rat heart undergo changes. Among the changes is a switch in the expression of Na,K-
ATPase
catalytic subunit isoforms. Thyroid hormone has been postulated to play an important role in the postnatal transformation of the heart, and its effect on myosin heavy chain isoform gene transcription is well documented. To test whether it controls Na,K-
ATPase
gene switching in vivo, we made neonatal rats hypothyroid by maternal treatment with methimazole. The expression of Na,K-
ATPase
catalytic subunit isoforms in cardiac and skeletal muscle membranes was measured with specific antibodies at time points from birth to 4 weeks of age. Postnatal changes in Na,K-
ATPase
isoform expression in cardiac ventricle and hind limb skeletal muscle were similar in control and hypothyroid animals. In the same hypothyroid animals, the postnatal switch from the V3 (beta) isoform of myosin heavy chain to the V1 (alpha) isoform was blocked. The conclusion is that
thyroid hormone
may have a modulatory role in Na,K-
ATPase
gene expression, but it is not the developmental signal that dominates gene switching.

The rate of response to
thyroid hormone
on cardiac growth, heart rate, and the relative changes in messenger RNA (mRNA) coding for alpha- and beta-myosin heavy chain (MHC), slow sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium-
adenosine triphosphatase
, and
thyroid hormone
receptors in ventricular tissue of hypothyroid rats was investigated. Hypothyroid rats had significantly smaller hearts, with slower heart rates and expressed no alpha-MHC mRNA as analyzed by an S1 nuclease protection assay when compared to euthyroid animals that expressed 79% alpha-MHC. Twelve hours after treating hypothyroid rats with 20 micrograms of L-T4, detectable levels of alpha-MHC mRNA were present and the shift to alpha-MHC mRNA was complete by 72 h of treatment. Northern blot analysis showed that hypothyroidism resulted in a 60% decrease in the level of sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium-
adenosine triphosphatase
mRNA which increased after 12 h of T4 administration and was 2.5-fold (P less than 0.05) greater than euthyroid levels after 72 h. In contrast, thyroid hormone receptor mRNA levels measured in poly(A)+ RNA were elevated in hypothyroid rats and decreased to euthyroid levels within 24 h after
thyroid hormone
treatment. These changes in cardiac gene expression occurred simultaneously with changes in both cardiac size and heart rate. The current studies characterize the coordinated changes and the time course for gene expression that occur in the hypothyroid heart after acute T4 administration.

We have attempted to elucidate the effect of
thyroid hormone
on phospholipase C-linked inositol phospholipid hydrolysis in the rat hypothalamus. Hypothalamic slices of each animal, euthyroid control, hypothyroid, and thyroxine (T4)-supplemented hypothyroid rats were labeled with [3H]myoinositol in the presence of 5 mM LiCl, and then incubated for 60 min in KHG buffer containing either vehicle or 1 mM ouabain, a Na-K
ATPase
inhibitor. Hypothyroidism caused a significant increase in both basal and ouabain-stimulated accumulation of [3H]inositol phosphate ([3H]IP) in hypothalamic slices, whereas supplement with T4 to hypothyroid rats resulted in a complete restoration of hypothalamic [3H]IP formation to the value of euthyroid control. The present results indicate that
thyroid hormone
affects phospholipase C-linked inositol phospholipid hydrolysis in the hypothalamus, suggesting that negative feedback action of
thyroid hormone
may occur at a post-receptor site in the hypothalamus.

Thyroid hormone is one of the few known physiological regulators of mammalian mitochondrial biogenesis. Although it exerts a global effect on biogenesis, it does so by regulating the expression of a limited number of unidentified mitochondrial proteins. We have investigated these hormone-regulated proteins in rat liver. Hormone injection induced a 30-fold increase in the levels of cytochrome-c1 mRNA after 3 d. In addition, the mRNA for the growth-activated adenine-nucleotide translocator, ANT2, was increased 13-fold and that for the
ATPase
N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-binding protein increased 4-5-fold. Mitochondrial transcripts of cytochrome-oxidase subunit I also increased. No changes were found in the mRNA levels for the F1-ATPase beta-subunit or cytochrome oxidase IV. A single low dose of triiodothyronine induces rapid increases in cytochrome-c1 and ANT2 mRNA species which parallel changes in the activity of the hormone-responsive malic enzyme, but are earlier than other mitochondrial biogenetic events. These data strengthen the view that
thyroid hormone
regulates synthesis of specific components within each respiratory-chain complex and that these products apparently play key roles in inner-membrane biogenesis and assembly. The significance of ANT2 induction is also discussed with respect to the rapid respiratory response induced by
thyroid hormone
.

It is known that Na-K,
adenosine triphosphatase
(
ATPase
) in cell membranes represents an important consumer of cellular energy, eg, adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and that the concentration and activity of this enzyme change in a dose-dependent manner with serum
thyroid hormone
levels. To examine the hypothesis that low triiodothyronine (T3) syndrome represents a cellular adaptation in generalized severe illnesses that saves tissue energy expenditure, we measured the muscle Na-K,
ATPase
concentration and its activity in rats that led to low T3 syndrome induced by fasting. The Na-K,
ATPase
concentration was measured by 3H-ouabain binding to soleus muscle, and its activity was measured by 42K uptake in the contralateral soleus muscle. The effects of refeeding or T3 administration on Na-K,
ATPase
in soleus muscle in fasted rats were also examined. Na-K,
ATPase
concentration and activity were both increased in hyperthyroid rats and decreased in hypothyroid rats. In the fasting state, they were decreased to as low as the levels seen in hypothyroidism. Furthermore, with fasting + refeeding or fasting + T3 administration, Na-K,
ATPase
in soleus muscle returned to the normal level. These results suggest that tissue energy expenditure, as assessed by Na-K,
ATPase
, in skeletal muscles of fasted rats with low T3 syndrome is actually decreased to levels seen in hypothyroidism, due at least partly to the decrease in serum T3 concentrations, and that there exist some adaptation mechanisms in the peripheral tissues for the accommodation of energy metabolism in the body through decreased thyroxine (T4) to T3 conversion.

Synthesis and activity of the enzymatic equivalent of the sodium pump, Na,K-
ATPase
, are regulated by
thyroid hormone
in responsive tissues. The purpose of this study was to determine whether triiodothyronine (T3) regulates the level of the messenger RNA (mRNA) coding for Na,K-
ATPase
alpha- and beta-subunits in the heart. The expression of Na,K-
ATPase
mRNAs in in vitro myocardial cells was directly assayed by Northern and slot blot hybridization using Na,K-
ATPase
alpha- and beta-isoform-specific cDNA probes. Exposure of cultured neonatal rat cardiocytes to 10(-8) M T3 resulted in 1) threefold to fourfold increase in alpha 1- and beta 1-mRNA accumulation, with a maximum elevation at 48 hours, 2) sevenfold increase in alpha 2-mRNA accumulation with a peak elevation at 72 hours, and 3) transient threefold increase in alpha 3-mRNA within the first 24 hours followed by a deinduction thereafter. The increase in alpha 1-mRNA accumulation by T3 occurred over the physiological T3 concentration range with an EC50 of 5 x 10(-10) M. This was associated with a twofold increase in alpha 1-subunit protein accumulation and an increase in Na,K-
ATPase
transport activity. The half-life of alpha 1-mRNA analyzed by actinomycin D chase was less than 3 hours and was not affected by T3. Transfection experiments with the luciferase reporter gene revealed that
thyroid hormone
response sequences are located within the 5'-flanking regions of each alpha-isoform gene.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Membrane Ca(2+)-
ATPase
activity was stimulated in vitro separately by T4 (10(-10) M) and by epinephrine (10(-6) M). In the presence of a fixed concentration of T4, additions of 10(-8) and 10(-6) M epinephrine reduced the T4 effect on the enzyme. beta-Adrenergic blockade with propranolol (10(-6) M) prevented stimulation by epinephrine of Ca(2+)-
ATPase
activity, but did not prevent the suppressive action of epinephrine on T4-stimulable Ca(2+)-
ATPase
. In contrast, alpha 1-adrenergic blockade with unlabelled prazosin restored the effect of T4 on Ca(2+)-
ATPase
activity in the presence of epinephrine. Like propranolol, prazosin prevented enhancement of enzyme activity by epinephrine in the absence of
thyroid hormone
. Neither prazosin nor propranolol had any effect on the stimulation by T4 of red cell Ca(2+)-
ATPase
in the absence of epinephrine. Analysis of radiolabelled prazosin binding to human red cell membranes revealed the presence of a single class of high-affinity binding sites (Kd, 1.2 x 10(-8) M; Bmax, 847 fmol/mg membrane protein). Thus, the human erythrocyte membrane contains alpha 1-adrenergic receptor sites that are capable of regulating Ca(2+)-
ATPase
activity.

Prior studies have demonstrated the importance of hemodynamic loading in mediating thyroxine (T4)-induced cardiac hypertrophy. Direct cellular effects of
thyroid hormone
have been implicated in modulating the expression of the myosin heavy chain (MHC) genes and the slow sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium
adenosine triphosphatase
(SR Ca(2+)-
ATPase
) gene. In the present report, administration of T4 for 72 h did not stimulate growth of the hemodynamically unloaded heterotopic isograft. The synthetic rates of total cardiac proteins and MHC in the isograft remained significantly lower at 64 and 53% of the respective rates measured simultaneously in the in situ working heart. Although total left ventricle RNA content in the isograft was unchanged by T4, alpha-MHC and SR Ca(2+)-ATPase mRNA concentrations were increased 181 and 208%, respectively, and the previously observed beta-MHC expression was completely prevented. These data indicate that, although T4 requires an increased hemodynamic load to stimulate cardiac protein synthesis, it is capable of directly altering the expression of at least two myocyte-specific genes. Therefore some of the phenotypic alterations observed with
thyroid hormone
treatment are the result of direct effects of the hormones on specific cardiac genes and independent of changes in cardiac growth.
