Thyroglobulin binding and TSH regulation of the RHL-1 subunit of the asialoglycoprotein receptor in rat thyroid.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The ability of asialo-thyroglobulin to bind the thyroid RHL-1 subunit of the asialoglycoprotein receptor has been investigated. Ligand blot assays show that the recombinant carbohydrate recognition domain of the thyroid RHL-1 subunit specifically interacts with rat desialated thyroglobulin. Moreover, RT-PCR and Western blot assays show that TSH deprivation decreases RHL-1 expression in PC C13 thyroid differentiated cells whereas insulin deprivation does not have any effect. The simultaneous absence of both TSH and insulin dramatically decreases the level of RHL-1 expression.

Differential ligand binding by two subunits of the rat liver asialoglycoprotein receptor.
The rat liver asialoglycoprotein receptor consists of two types of subunits, a predominant polypeptide designated rat hepatic lectin 1 (RHL-1) and a minor polypeptide, RHL-2/3, that comes in two differentially glycosylated forms. The exact stoichiometry and arrangement of the subunits in the RHL oligomer are not known. The carbohydrate-recognition domain of RHL-2/3 has been prepared by limited ...
متن کاملIdentification of rat testis galactosyl receptor using antibodies to liver asialoglycoprotein receptor: purification and localization on surfaces of spermatogenic cells and sperm
We have found that the rat testis contains a cell surface galactosyl receptor that is antigenically related to the minor species of rat liver asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGP-r) and has binding affinity for galactose coupled to agarose. In immunoblotting experiments, rat testis galactosyl receptor (RTG-r) is recognized by antiserum raised against the minor ASGP-r species of rat liver (designat...

The rat liver asialoglycoprotein receptor or rat hepatic lectin (RHL) consists of two polypeptide species, a major one designated RHL-1 and a minor one designated RHL-2/3, which exists in two differentially glycosylated forms. We have studied the biosynthesis, targeting, and function of the different forms after transfection of their cDNAs into the polarized Madin-Darby canine kidney cell line....

Thyroid Stimulating Hormone Receptor (TSH-R) autoantibodies are the main cause of Graveschr('39') disease and its external thyroid manifestations such as ophtalmopathy and dermatopathy. These antibodies are functionally different and are commonly called TSH receptor antibodies (TRAbs). In fact, TRAbs are a set of autoantibodies including TSHR-stimulating antibodies (TSAbs), TSHR- blocking antib...
متن کاملThyroglobulin Interactions with Thyroid Plasma Membranes
Thyroglobulin binds to isolated thyroid plasma membrane preparations. Binding is pHand temperaturedependent with lo-fold better binding at pH 5.0 and 37°C than at 0°C and pH 6.0 through pH 7.5. Binding is, however, maximal in 90 min at all pH values and temperatures examined. Although salts can inhibit or enhance thyroglobulin binding depending on the temperature or pH, conditions approaching t...
