Abstract:Thyroid hormone exerts its biological effect by binding to a TR. Both liganded and unliganded TRs regulate the transcription of T(3)-responsive genes. Cofactors with activating or repressing function modulate the transcriptional regulation by TRs. We showed that steroid receptor coactivator 1 (SRC-1)-deficient mice (SRC-1(-/-)) exhibit partial resistance to thyroid hormone at the level of the pituitary thyrotrophs. To determine whether SRC-1 deficiency affects globally T(3)-dependent transcriptional regulation… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based startup that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
