Differential gene expression analysis of iodide-treated rat thyroid follicular cell line PCCl3
Open accessAbstract
The inhibitory effect of supraphysiological iodide concentrations on thyroid hormone synthesis (Wolff-Chaikoff effect) and on thyrocyte proliferation is largely known as iodine autoregulation. However, the molecular mechanisms by which iodide modulates thyroid function remain unclear. In this paper, we analyze the transcriptome profile of the rat follicular cell lineage PCCl3 under untreated and treated conditions with 10(-3) M sodium iodide (NaI). Serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) revealed 84 transcripts differentially expressed in response to iodide (p</=0.001). We also showed that iodide excess inhibits the expression of essential genes for thyroid differentiation: Tshr, Nis, Tg, and Tpo. Relative expression of 14 of 20 transcripts selected by SAGE was confirmed by real-time PCR. Considering the key role of iodide organification in thyroid physiology, we also observed that both the oxidized form of iodide and iodide per se are responsible for gene expression modulation in response to iodide excess.

High iodide downregulates NIS through inhibition of NIS transcription, shortening of NIS mRNA poly(A) tail and destabilization, and shortening of NIS protein half-life.
“NIS is downregulated by high iodide through several mechanisms. First of all, high iodide inhibits the transcription of NIS (216, 234, 235).”
From Intrathyroidal feedforward and feedback network regulating thyroid hormone synthesis and secretion (2022) · cites this paper as [235]
The Validation of SAGE data section reports that high iodide reduced Nis mRNA expression in PCCl3 cells, supporting NIS downregulation. The paper does not establish that inhibition of NIS transcription, rather than another mechanism affecting mRNA abundance, caused the reduction. The poly(A)-tail and protein-half-life mechanisms are not part of the quoted citing sentence assessed here. (LLM, conf=0.87)

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.
