Effect of 3,3′-diiodothyronine and 3,5-diiodothyronine on rat liver oxidative capacity
Abstract
We report that 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3) as well as two other iodothyronines (3,3'-diiodothyronine and 3,5-diiodothyronine (T2s)) stimulate rat liver oxidative capacity (measured as cytochrome oxidase activity (COX)). In hypothyroid rats COX activity and mitochondrial protein content are significantly lower than in normal control animals. The administration of both T3 and T2s to hypothyroid rats significantly enhances hepatic COX activity with T3 having the greatest effect (+60%); moreover, T3 restores the mitochondrial protein content whereas the T2s are ineffective. Administration of T2s results in a faster stimulation (already significant 1 h after the injection) of hepatic COX activity than T3 injection. Our results suggest that T3 acts on the protein synthesis mechanism involved in the regulation of the mitochondrial mass while T2s would act directly at the mitochondrial level.

3,5-T2 increases the rate of oxygen consumption in perfused rat liver, blood mononuclear cells, and rat liver mitochondria.
“Compound 3,5-T2 by itself increases the rate of oxygen consumption in perfused rat liver (Horst et al. 1989), blood mononuclear cells (Kvetny 1992), and rat liver mitochondria (Lanni et al. 1992, 1993, O'Reilly & Murphy 1992)”

3,5-T2 affects the activity of enzymes involved in energy metabolism.
“and affects the activity of enzymes involved in energy metabolism, including α-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (Lombardi et al. 2000), cytochrome oxidase (Lanni et al. 1992, 1993, Goglia et al. 1994, Arnold et al. 1998), malate dehydrogenase (Ball et al. 1997, Lombardi et al. 2000), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (Lombardi et al. 2000), and F0F1-ATP synthase (Mangiullo et al. 2010).”

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.
