Depletion of the p43 Mitochondrial T3 Receptor Increases Sertoli Cell Proliferation in Mice
Among T3 receptors, TRα1 is ubiquitous and its deletion or a specific expression of a dominant-negative TRα1 isoform in Sertoli cell leads to an increase in testis weight and sperm production. The identification of a 43-kDa truncated form of the nuclear receptor TRα1 (p43) in the mitochondrial matrix led us to test the hypothesis that this mitochondrial transcription factor could regulate Serto...
متن کاملDepletion of the p43 mitochondrial T3 receptor in mice affects skeletal muscle development and activity.
In vertebrates, skeletal muscle myofibers display different contractile and metabolic properties associated with different mitochondrial content and activity. We have previously identified a mitochondrial triiodothyronine receptor (p43) regulating mitochondrial transcription and mitochondrial biogenesis. When overexpressed in skeletal muscle, it increases mitochondrial DNA content, stimulates m...
متن کاملMice Lacking the p43 Mitochondrial T3 Receptor Become Glucose Intolerant and Insulin Resistant during Aging
Thyroid hormones (TH) play an important regulatory role in energy expenditure regulation and are key regulators of mitochondrial activity. We have previously identified a mitochondrial triiodothyronine (T3) receptor (p43) which acts as a mitochondrial transcription factor of the organelle genome, which leads in vitro and in vivo, to a stimulation of mitochondrial biogenesis. Recently, we genera...
متن کاملOverexpression of the Mitochondrial T3 Receptor p43 Induces a Shift in Skeletal Muscle Fiber Types
In previous studies, we have characterized a new hormonal pathway involving a mitochondrial T3 receptor (p43) acting as a mitochondrial transcription factor and consequently stimulating mitochondrial activity and mitochondrial biogenesis. We have established the involvement of this T3 pathway in the regulation of in vitro myoblast differentiation. We have generated mice overexpressing p43 under...
متن کاملRelaxin and Sertoli cell proliferation.
Immature Sertoli cells proliferate and several factors affect their number, including the follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), testosterone, estradiol and several paracrine growth factors. Using a primary culture of Sertoli cells isolated from 15-day old Wistar rats we have shown that relaxin stimulates Sertoli cell proliferation through the activation of MEK/ERK1/2 and PI3K/AKT pathways. In con...
