Key Roles T3, T4 Mechanism |
Regulation of body development Govern rate at which metabolism occurs in individual cells. Mechanism: Since they are hydrophobic (bind to receptors), they easily diffuse through and bind to cytosolic and nuclear receptors, forming Thyroid hormone-receptor complex and function as a TF to perform transcription and translation (long, long half life) Influence gene expression |
|
What contains the major cells for T3, T4 synthesis. |
Thyroid follicular cells |
|
Structure thyroid follicular cells |
Tight junctions, preventing leakage Microvilli line apical area of lumen Pseudopods extend into lumen |
|
Structure colloid |
Thick proteinaceous gel like substance, colloid, composed primarily of thyroglobulin. |
|
What are thyroid colloid cells composed primarily of? |
Thyroglobulin |
|
General formation of T3, T4 |
Iodination of tyrosine residues on thyroglobulin Thyroglobulin -- 3 iodinations --> T3 Thyroglobulin -- 4 iodinations --> T4 T3, T4 -- pinocytosis from colloid into follicular cells --> finalize Thyroid hormone production |
|
Mechanism T3, T4 transport |
When needed, TG pinocytoszed back into follicular cells. Bind to lysosome, peroxidase activity removes T3, T4 from TG > DIT, MIT recycled (I recycled) > T3 T4 released and bind to Thyroxine binding globulin (TBG) (80% T3 bound, 70% T4 bound) > T3, T4 reaches site, ~ 40% T4 converted to T3 > T3 main physiological function |
|
Function T3, T4 |
Important role CNS development during fetal and neonatal life and developing nerve cells in brain In adults: Brain cells show little responsiveness to metabolic regulatory activities of t thyroid hormones |
|
Thyroid hormone function, mechanism |
Mechanism: T4, T3 enter cell. T4 > T3 T3 binds to Thyroid receptor (TR) T3-TR complex recruits RXR (9-cis retinoid acid receptor) and TR-T3-RXR complex binds to thyroid hormone response element (TRE) Binding of TR-T3-RXR complex to TRE causes displacement of corepressor and recruitment of coactivator. This results in transcription via RNA polymerase 2 to form proteins relevant to thyroid hormone Function: Normal body growth in children Basal energy metabolism Brain maturation during fetal growth (2nd trimester - birth) Normal cell differentiation, development, body growth |

Mechanism Thyroid hormone (what was the lecture thought) |
t3, t4 enters via facilitated through thyroid receptors T4 > T3 (5' Deiodinate) T3 binds TR T3-TR complex deterodimerizes with RXR T3-T4-RXR complex is a TF that binds to TRE on DNA, displacing corepressor, brings coactivator increasing transcription Lecture thought * Thought that T3 can do things directly, without changing protein expression, having rapid responses |
|
