Isoforms of the thyroid hormone receptor (TR)
and TRß genes mediate thyroid hormone action. How TR isoforms modulate tissue-specific thyroid hormone (TH) action remains largely unknown. The steroid receptor coactivator-1 (SRC-1) is among a group of
transcriptional coactivator proteins that bind to TRs, along with other members of the nuclear receptor superfamily, and modulates the activity of genes regulated by TH. Mice deficient in SRC-1 possess decreased tissue responsiveness to TH and many steroid hormones; however, it is not known whether or not SRC-1-mediated activation of TH-regulated gene transcription in peripheral tissues, such as heart and liver, is TR isoform specific. We have generated mice deficient in TR
and SRC-1 (TR
0/0SRC-1-/-), as well as in TRßand SRC-1 (TRß-/-SRC-1-/-) and
investigated thyroid function tests and effects of TH deprivation and TH treatment compared to wild type (WT) mice or those deficient in either TR or SRC-1 alone. The data show that (1) in the absence of TR
or TRß, SRC-1 is important for normal growth; (2) SRC-1 modulates TR
and TRß effects on heart rate; (3) two new TRß-dependent markers of TH action in the liver have been identified, osteopontin (up-regulated) and glutathione-S-transferase (down-regulated); and (4) SRC-1 may mediate the hypersensitivity to TH seen in liver of TR
0/0 mice.
