Project description:Cerebellar post-natal development is particularly sensitive to thyroid hormone and low levels of thyroid hormone (hypothyroidism) result in permanent defects in cerebellar architecture and function. All cell types of the cerebellum are affected, but the main sign of hypothyroidism in mice is the persistence of the external granular layer, composed of mitotic neuronal precursors at P21. To make the genetic link between thyroid hormone and cerebellar development, we sought to identify new thyroid hormone target genes, in particular in granule cells which represent the vast majority of cerebellar cells.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of rat liver comparing male rats with congenital hypothyrodism (CH) vs intact at adulhood. Here we studied how CH influences liver gene expression program in adulthood. Thyroid hormones are required for normal growth and development in mammals. Congenital-neonatal hypothyroidism (CH) has a profound impact on physiology but its specific influence in liver is less understood. Here we studied how CH influences liver gene expression program in adulthood. Pregnant rats were given anti-thyroid drug methimazole (MMI) from GD12 until PND30 to induce CH in male offspring. Growth defects due to CH were evident as a reduction in body weight and tail length from the second week of life. Once the MMI treatment was discontinued, feed efficiency increased in CH and this was accompanied by significant catch-up growth. On PND80, significant reduction in body mass, tail length, and circulating IGF-I remained in CH rats. On the other hand, mRNA levels of known GH targeted genes were significantly up-regulated. Serum levels of thyroid hormones, cholesterol, and triglycerides showed no significant differences. In contrast, CH rats showed significant changes in expression for hepatic genes involved in lipid metabolism with an increased transcription of PPAR and reduced expression of genes involved in fatty acids and cholesterol uptake, cellular sterol efflux, triglycerides assembly, bile acid synthesis, and lipogenesis. These changes were associated with a decrease of intrahepatic lipids. Finally, CH rats responded to hypothyroidism onset in adulthood with a reduction of serum fatty acids and hepatic cholesteryl esters, and to T3 replacement with enhanced activation of lipogenic transcriptional program. In summary, we provided in vivo evidence that neonatal hypothyroidism causes long-lasting effects on hepatic transcriptional program and tissue sensitivity to hormone treatment. This highlights the critical role that a euthyroid state during development plays on normal liver physiology in adulthood. Two conditions CH vs INTACT male rats. Biological replicates: Four independent hybridizations: 4 controls (age-matched intact rats) vs 4 CH (male rats with congenital hypothyroidism) on postnatal day 80 for a total of four arrays. One replicate per array.

To make the genetic link between thyroid hormone and cerebellar development, we sought to identify new thyroid hormone target genes, in particular in granule cells which represent the vast majority of cerebellar cells. Primary cultures of cerebellar neurons were made by dissociation of cerebella from newborn wild-type mice. These cells were plated 48 hours in serum-free medium to avoid invasion of the culture by glial cells. In order to include a kinetic and a maximum number of target genes, several cultures were either treated or left untreated as controls for 6 hours (T1), 16 hours (T2), 24 hours (T3) or 48 hours (T4) and results were pairwise compared for each time point.

Project description:Deficiency in Krüppel-like zinc finger transcription factor, GLI-Similar 3 (GLIS3) in humans is associated with the development of congenital hypothyroidism. However, the functions of GLIS3 in the thyroid gland and by what mechanism GLIS3-dysfunction causes hypothyroidism are unknown. In this study, we demonstrate that GLIS3 acts downstream of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH)/TSHR and is indispensable for TSH/TSHR-mediated induction of thyroid follicular cell proliferation and thyroid hormone biosynthesis. ChIP-Seq and promoter analysis revealed that GLIS3 is critical for the transcriptional activation of several genes required for thyroid hormone biosynthesis, including the iodide transporters Nis and Pds, indicating that these genes are directly regulated by GLIS3. The repression of cell proliferation regulatory genes is due to the inhibition of TSH-mediated activation of the mTORC1/RPS6 pathway as well as direct transcriptional regulation of several cell division-related genes by GLIS3. Consequently, GLIS3-deficiency prevents the development of goiter as well as the induction of inflammatory and fibrotic genes during chronic elevation of circulating TSH. Our study identifies GLIS3 as a new and key regulator of TSH/TSHR-mediated thyroid hormone biosynthesis and proliferation of thyroid follicular cells, and uncovers a mechanism by which GLIS3-deficiency causes congenital hypothyroidism and prevents goiter development.

Project description:The function of the thyroid gland is to metabolize iodide to synthesize hormones that act on almost all tissues and are essential for normal growth and metabolism. Low plasma levels of thyroid hormones lead to hypothyroidism, which is one of the most common diseases in the general population and cannot be always satisfactorily treated by lifelong hormone replacement. Therefore, in addition to the lack of in vitro tractable models to study human thyroid development, differentiation and maturation, there is a need for new therapeutic approaches that involve replacement of thyroid tissue to better control hormone balance. Here we report the first model of thyroid organoids derived from human embryonic stem cells that produce thyroid hormones in vitro and are capable of restoring plasma thyroid hormone levels when transplanted into athyreotic mice.

Project description:An inverse correlation between circulating thyroid hormone levels and longevity has been reported in several species and reduced thyroid hormone levels have been proposed as a biomarker for healthy aging and metabolic fitness in humans. However, hypothyroidism is a serious medical condition associated with reduced health and life expectancy. In this report, we show that severe and even subtle modulations on thyroid hormone levels leading to different forms of hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism produce an overall unhealthy status and reduced lifespan in mice. A mild reduction in circulating T4 levels (~10%) resulted in hepatic mitochondrial dysfunction, increased ROS production and oxidative damage accumulation. These actions may contribute to the development of metabolic disorders, increased prevalence of hepatocellular carcinomas and early mortality in mice. Our findings raise concerns regarding the development of interventions aiming to modulate thyroid hormones to promote healthy aging or lifespan extension in mammals.
