Dual activation by thyrotropin of the phospholipase c and cyclic AMP cascades in human thyroid
Abstract
In human thyroid slices prelabeled with myo-[2-3H]inositol, thyrotropin (TSH, 3-30 mU/ml) stimulated IP3, IP2 and IP1 generation over a prolonged time course. The cAMP response was much more sensitive to TSH, peaking between 1 and 5 mU/ml. Forskolin (10(-5) M) and isoproterenol had no effect on basal IP levels, while carbamylcholine (10(-5) M, 10(-4) M) also increased IP accumulation. These data suggest that in the human thyroid, TSH activates a phospholipase C generating IP3 and diacylglycerol independently of the well-known adenylate cyclase stimulation. They validate in the human model a dual mode of action of the hormone previously proposed on the basis of indirect observations.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
It takes 10 times higher concentrations of TSH to activate Gαq/11 and the downstream phospholipase C (PLC) and inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) than to activate cAMP in human thyroid slices.
“It was reported that it takes 10 times higher concentrations of TSH to activate Gαq/11 and the downstream phospholipase C (PLC) and inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) than to activate cAMP in human thyroid slices (117).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
