Iodide inhibits several thyroid parameters through an organic intermediate, and this process has been related to thyroid autoregulation. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of iodine on thyroglobulin (Tg) synthesis in the rat thyroid cell line FRTL-5. TSH stimulated amino acid incorporation into the cells by 400% and iodine had no effect on this parameter. No effect of TSH or iodide on [35S] methionine incorporation into protein was found under our experimental conditions (approximately 80% of total [35S]methionine incorporated was found in TCA-precipitable material). TSH caused an increase in Tg synthesis, after 1 h, while iodide partially blocked the effect of TSH (control 6.4% of TCA precipitable radioactivity; TSH 10.7%; iodide 8.4%). After 24 h, the protein released into the medium was measured. TSH stimulated total protein liberation and iodide inhibited this parameter. TSH stimulated total RNA content, and iodide caused an inhibition. Northern analysis did not show inhibition by iodide of TSH-stimulated Tg mRNA levels. The present results show an inhibitory effect of excess iodide on TSH-stimulated thyroglobulin biosynthesis in FRTL-5 cells.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007454 Iodides Inorganic binary compounds of iodine or the I- ion. Iodide
D008715 Methionine A sulfur-containing essential L-amino acid that is important in many body functions. L-Methionine,Liquimeth,Methionine, L-Isomer,Pedameth,L-Isomer Methionine,Methionine, L Isomer
D011506 Proteins Linear POLYPEPTIDES that are synthesized on RIBOSOMES and may be further modified, crosslinked, cleaved, or assembled into complex proteins with several subunits. The specific sequence of AMINO ACIDS determines the shape the polypeptide will take, during PROTEIN FOLDING, and the function of the protein. Gene Products, Protein,Gene Proteins,Protein,Protein Gene Products,Proteins, Gene
D002460 Cell Line Established cell cultures that have the potential to propagate indefinitely. Cell Lines,Line, Cell,Lines, Cell
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.

D013954 Thyroglobulin
D013961 Thyroid Gland A highly vascularized endocrine gland consisting of two lobes joined by a thin band of tissue with one lobe on each side of the TRACHEA. It secretes THYROID HORMONES from the follicular cells and CALCITONIN from the parafollicular cells thereby regulating METABOLISM and CALCIUM level in blood, respectively.
