Abstract

The goal of these studies was to define the rate-limiting steps in the inactivation of type 2 iodothyronine deiodinase (D2).We examined the effects of ATP depletion, a lysosomal protease inhibitor, and an inhibitor of actin polymerization on D2 activity in the presence or absence of cycloheximide or 3,3 Ј ,5 Ј -triiodothyronine (reverse T3, rT3) in rat pituitary tumor cells (GH4C1).We also analyzed the effects of the proteasomal proteolysis inhibitor carbobenzoxy-L -leucyl-L -leucyl-L -leucinal (MG132).The half-life of D2 activity in hypothyroid cells was 47 min after cycloheximide and 60 min with rT3 (3 nM).rT3 and cycloheximide were additive, reducing D2 half-life to 20 min.D2 degradation was partially inhibited by ATP depletion, but not by cytochalasin B or chloroquine.Incubation with MG132 alone increased D2 activity by 30-40% for several hours, and completely blocked the cycloheximide-or rT3-induced decrease in D2 activity.These results suggest that D2 is inactivated by proteasomal uptake and that substrate reduces D2 activity by accelerating degradation through this pathway.This is the first demonstration of a critical role for proteasomes in the post-translational regulation of D2 activity.( J. Clin.Invest.1998.102:1895-1899 .) Key words: selenocysteine • thyroid hormone metabolism • reverse T3 • MG132 • selenium MethodsReagents.MG132 was obtained from the Peptide Institute, Inc. (Osaka, Japan) and dissolved in DMSO.CCCP, chloroquine, and cytochalasin B were from Sigma Chemical Co.(St.Louis, MO).Cycloheximide and rT3 were from Calbiochem (La Jolla, CA).CCCP was dissolved in 100% ethanol and cytochalasin B and cycloheximide in DMSO.rT3 was dissolved in 70% ethanol.Outer ring-labeled [ 125 I]-

  • T4 and rT3 inhibit DIO2 by promoting its ubiquitination, which inhibits DIO2 activity and targets it for proteasomal degradation, forming an incoherent feedforward motif with T3 as the output.

    “T4 and rT3 also inhibit DIO2 by promoting its ubiquitination, which inhibits DIO2 activity and targets it for proteasomal degradation (37–40), forming an incoherent feedforward motif with T3 as the output.”

    From Intrathyroidal feedforward and feedback network regulating thyroid hormone synthesis and secretion (2022) · cites this paper as [37]

    The Introduction identifies T4 and rT3 as D2 substrates that decrease its activity. The Results and Discussion show that rT3 accelerates D2 degradation through a proteasome-dependent pathway. The paper proposes ubiquitin conjugation as a possible step but does not demonstrate that T4 or rT3 promotes D2 ubiquitination. (LLM, conf=0.86)

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.
