Abstract
Activation and/or modulation of the membrane-associated receptors plays a critical role in brain development. Thyroid hormone (TH) acts on both nuclear receptors (thyroid hormone receptor, TR) and membrane-associated receptors, particularly integrin αvβ3 in neurons and glia. Integrin αvβ3-mediated signal transduction mediates various cellular events during development including morphogenesis, migration, synaptogenesis, and intracellular metabolism. However, the involvement of integrin αvβ3-mediated TH action during brain development remains poorly understood. Thus, we examined the integrin αvβ3-mediated effects of TH (T3, T4, and rT3) in the neurons and astrocytes using primary cerebellar culture, astrocyte-enriched culture, Neuro-2A clonal cells, and co-culture of neurons and astrocytes. We found that TH augments dendrite arborization of cerebellar Purkinje cells. This augmentation was suppressed by knockdown of integrin αvβ3, as well as TRα and TRβ. A selective integrin αvβ3 antagonist, LM609, was also found to suppress TH-induced arborization. However, whether this effect was a direct action of TH on Purkinje cells or due to indirect actions of other cells subset such as astrocytes was not clarified. To further study neuron-specific molecular mechanisms, we used Neuro-2A clonal cells and found TH also induces neurite growth. TH-induced neurite growth was reduced by co-exposure with LM609 or knockdown of TRα, but not TRβ. Moreover, co-culture of Neuro-2A and astrocytes also increased TH-induced neurite growth, indicating astrocytes may be involved in neuritogenesis. TH increased the localization of synapsin-1 and F-actin in filopodia tips. TH exposure also increased phosphorylation of FAK, Akt, and ERK1/2. Phosphorylation was suppressed by co-exposure with LM609 and TRα knockdown. These results indicate that TRs and integrin αvβ3 play essential roles in TH-induced dendritogenesis and neuritogenesis. Furthermore, astrocytes-neuron communication via TR-dependent and TR-independent signaling through membrane receptors and F-actin are required for TH-induced neuritogenesis.

Abstract
Background To evaluate the association of thyroid hormones changes, including increased reverse triiodothyronine (rT3) level, with critically ill clinical patients´ mortality. Patients and methods This study analyzed the observational data prospectively collected over 8 months (2018) in an adult intensive care unit (ICU) in Brasilia, Brazil. All consecutive ICU-admitted clinical patients were included. Thyroxine (T4), free thyroxine (fT4), triiodothyronine (T3), free triiodothyronine (fT3), rT3, and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) were collected within 48 hours of ICU admission. Patients with hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism who were previously diagnosed were excluded. Results Of 353 included patients, age was 68.5 ± 19.0 years, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score was 3.3 ± 2.9, and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) was 17.1 ± 7.9. ICU mortality was 17.6% (n = 62). Non-survivor patients had a higher incidence of increased rT3 (69.3 vs 59.2%, p = 0.042), lower incidence of low T4 (4.8 vs 9.7%, p = 0.045), and increased age (75.2 ± 16.3 years vs 67.1 ± 19.3 years, p = 0.001), SOFA (3.0 ± 0.4 vs 2.8 ± 2.6, p <0.001), and APACHE II (23.5 ± 7.5 vs 15.7 ± 7.2, p <0.001). Alterations in other thyroid hormones did not show association with mortality. Increased rT3 [odds ratio (OR): 2.436; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.023–5.800; p = 0.020] and APACHE II (OR: 1.083, 95% CI: 1.012–1.158; p = 0.044) were associated with ICU mortality in the multivariate analysis. Conclusion Increased rT3 was independently associated with increased ICU mortality. In contrast, other thyroid hormone alterations did not show an association with mortality. Determining rT3 levels may be a helpful test to identify an increased risk for ICU mortality in clinical patients.

Ligand Independent and Subtype-Selective Actions of Thyroid Hormone Receptors in Human Adipose Derived Stem Cells. PLoS One 2016; 11:e0164407.

Abstract
Thyroid hormone (TH) receptors (TRs α and β) are homologous ligand-dependent transcription factors (TFs). While the TRs display distinct actions in development, metabolic regulation and other processes, comparisons of TRα and TRβ dependent gene regulation mostly reveal similar mechanisms of action and few TR subtype specific genes. Here, we show that TRα predominates in multipotent human adipose derived stem cells (hADSC) whereas TRβ is expressed at lower levels and is upregulated during hADSC differentiation. The TRs display several unusual properties in parental hADSC. First, TRs display predominantly cytoplasmic intracellular distribution and major TRα variants TRα1 and TRα2 colocalize with mitochondria. Second, knockdown experiments reveal that endogenous TRs influence hADSC cell morphology and expression of hundreds of genes in the absence of hormone, but do not respond to exogenous TH. Third, TRα and TRβ affect hADSC in completely distinct ways; TRα regulates cell cycle associated processes while TRβ may repress aspects of differentiation. TRα splice variant specific knockdown reveals that TRα1 and TRα2 both contribute to TRα-dependent gene expression in a gene specific manner. We propose that TRs work in a non-canonical and hormone independent manner in hADSC and that prominent subtype-specific activities emerge in the context of these unusual actions.

Effects of Gadolinium-Based Contrast Agents on Thyroid Hormone Receptor Action and Thyroid Hormone-Induced Cerebellar Purkinje Cell Morphogenesis. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2016; 7:115. [PMID: 27617003 PMCID: PMC4999949 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2016.00115] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2016] [Accepted: 08/09/2016] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Gadolinium (Gd)-based contrast agents (GBCAs) are used in diagnostic imaging to enhance the quality of magnetic resonance imaging or angiography. After intravenous injection, GBCAs can accumulate in the brain. Thyroid hormones (THs) are critical for the development and functional maintenance of the central nervous system. TH actions in brain are mainly exerted through nuclear TH receptors (TRs). We examined the effects of GBCAs on TR-mediated transcription in CV-1 cells using transient transfection-based reporter assay and TH-mediated cerebellar Purkinje cell morphogenesis in primary culture. We also measured the cellular accumulation and viability of Gd after representative GBCA treatments in cultured CV-1 cells. Both linear (Gd-diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid-bis methyl acid, Gd-DTPA-BMA) and macrocyclic (Gd-tetraazacyclododecane tetraacetic acid, Gd-DOTA) GBCAs were accumulated without inducing cell death in CV-1 cells. By contrast, Gd chloride (GdCl3) treatment induced approximately 100 times higher Gd accumulation and significantly reduced the number of cells. Low doses of Gd-DTPA-BMA (10(-8) to 10(-6)M) augmented TR-mediated transcription, but the transcription was suppressed at higher dose (10(-5) to 10(-4)M), with decreased β-galactosidase activity indicating cellular toxicity. TR-mediated transcription was not altered by Gd-DOTA or GdCl3, but the latter induced a significant reduction in β-galactosidase activity at high doses, indicating cellular toxicity. In cerebellar cultures, the dendrite arborization of Purkinje cells induced by 10(-9)M T4 was augmented by low-dose Gd-DTPA-BMA (10(-7)M) but was suppressed by higher dose (10(-5)M). Such augmentation by low-dose Gd-DTPA-BMA was not observed with 10(-9)M T3, probably because of the greater dendrite arborization by T3; however, the arborization by T3 was suppressed by a higher dose of Gd-DTPA-BMA (10(-5)M) as seen in T4 treatment. The effect of Gd-DOTA on dendrite arborization was much weaker than that of the other compounds. These results indicate that exposure to specific GBCAs may, at least in part, cause toxic effects in the brain by disrupting the action of THs on TRs. The toxic effects of GBCAs may depend on the chemical structure of GBCA and the dose. Thus, it is very important to choose appropriate GBCAs for imaging to prevent adverse side effects.

Abstract
Individuals with congenital hypothyroidism (CH), even those diagnosed and treated early, experience selective cognitive deficits, the most striking of which involves the visuocognitive domain. However, the range and nature of their visuocognitive disturbances is not fully understood. We assessed a range of higher-order visuocognitive abilities in 19 children and adolescents with CH and 19 age- and sex-matched typically developing peers (TD) using a battery of neuropsychological tests and a novel self-report measure of sense of direction. CH scored lower than TD on direct tests of visuocognitive function (judging line orientation, parts-to-whole localization, copying three-dimensional block towers, discriminating designs, and matching unfamiliar faces in ¾ profile-view) as well as on self-reported problems in spatial ability. Visuocognitive problems were not global as CH and TD did not differ at copying two-dimensional block designs, mentally rotating and matching abstract shapes, or at matching unfamiliar front-view faces, design features, or designs that engaged either figure-ground segregation, visual constancy, or closure. Early and concurrent thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels were associated with visuocognitive ability, although attention and working memory were not. Individuals with CH exhibit selective visuocognitive weaknesses, some of which are related to early and concurrent TSH levels.

Abstract
Two well-characterized nongenomic actions of thyroid hormone in cultured brain tissues are: 1) regulation of type 2 iodothyronine 5'deiodinase (D2) activity and 2) regulation of actin polymerization. In particular, the latter is likely to have profound effects on neuronal migration in the developing brain. In this study, we determined whether these nongenomic actions also occurred in vivo during brain development. Neonatal hypothyroidism was induced by propylthiouracil given to pregnant dams beginning on d17 of gestation and continued throughout the neonatal period. On postnatal d 14, rats were injected with either cold or [(125)I]-labeled iodothyronines and killed sequentially after injection. In contrast to reports in the adult rat, all three iodothyronines readily and equally entered developing brain tissues. As expected, cerebrocortical D2 activity was markedly elevated in the hypothyroid brain and both reverse T(3) (rT(3)) and T(4) rapidly decreased D2 to euthyroid levels within 3 h. Furthermore, cerebellar G-actin content in the hypothyroid rat was approximately 5-fold higher than in the euthyroid rat. Again, both rT(3) and T(4) rapidly decreased the G-actin content by approximately 50%, with a reciprocal increase in F-actin content to euthyroid levels without altering total actin. Neither T(3) nor vehicle had any effect on D2 activity in the cortex or G- or F-actin content in the cerebellum. The thyroid hormone-dependent regulation of actin polymerization in the rat brain provides a mechanism by which this morphogenic hormone can influence neuronal migration independent of the need for altered gene transcription. Furthermore, these data suggest a prominent role for rT(3) during brain development.
