Triiodothyronine‐mediated upregulation of UCP2 and UCP3 mRNA expression in human skeletal muscle without coordinated induction of mitochondrial respiratory chain genes
Abstract
Triiodothyronine (T3) increases mitochondrial respiration and promotes the uncoupling between oxygen consumption and ATP synthesis. T3 effect is mediated partly through transcriptional control of genes encoding mitochondrial proteins. We determined the effect of T3 on mRNA levels of uncoupling proteins (UCP) and proteins involved in the biogenesis of the respiratory chain in human skeletal muscle and on UCP2 mRNA expression in adipose tissue. Ten young, healthy males received 75 to 100 µg of T3 per day for 14 days. The increase in plasma‐free T3 levels was associated with an increase of resting metabolic rate and a decrease of respiratory quotient. In skeletal muscle, treatment with T3 induced a twofold increase of both UCP2 and UCP3 mRNA levels (p < 0.01). The mRNA levels of cytochrome c oxidase subunits 2 and 4, nuclear respiratory factor 1, mitochondrial transcription factor A, and the co‐activator PGC1 did not change during the treatment. In adipose tissue, UCP2 mRNA levels increased threefold. The direct effect of T3 on skeletal muscle and adipose tissue UCP2 and UCP3 mRNA expression was demonstrated in vitro in human primary cultures. Our data show that T3 induces UCP2 and UCP3 mRNA expression in humans. In skeletal muscle, UCP regulation by T3 is not associated with the transcriptional regulation of respiratory chain proteins.

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.
