Journal ArticleDOI
Polychlorinated biphenyls suppress thyroid hormone receptor-mediated transcription through a novel mechanism.
Wataru Miyazaki,Wataru Miyazaki,Toshiharu Iwasaki,Akira Takeshita,Yoichiro Kuroda,Noriyuki Koibuchi +5 more
TL;DR: Electrophoretic mobility shift assays reveal that partial dissociation of TR/retinoid X receptor heterodimer complex from the TRE is involved in the suppression of transcription induced by PCB.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polychlorinated biphenyls suppress thyroid hormone-induced transactivation.
Toshiharu Iwasaki,Wataru Miyazaki,Wataru Miyazaki,Akira Takeshita,Yoichiro Kuroda,Noriyuki Koibuchi +5 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that very low dose of PCBs can potentially interfere with TR-mediated transactivation by influencing on TR/coactivator complex, and PCBs may disturb growth and development of TH target organ, particularly in the CNS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification and Characterization of RRM-containing Coactivator Activator (CoAA) as TRBP-interacting Protein, and Its Splice Variant as a Coactivator Modulator (CoAM)
TL;DR: Human CoAA and CoAM mRNAs are encoded by a single gene located on chromosome 11q13; alternative splicing in exon 2 of CoAA yields CoAM, which strongly represses both TRBP and CBP action suggesting that CoAM may modulate endogenous CoAA function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disruption of thyroid hormone receptor-mediated transcription and thyroid hormone-induced Purkinje cell dendrite arborization by polybrominated diphenyl ethers.
Kingsley Ibhazehiebo,Toshiharu Iwasaki,Junko Kimura-Kuroda,Wataru Miyazaki,Noriaki Shimokawa,Noriyuki Koibuchi +5 more
TL;DR: Several PBDE congeners may disrupt the TH system by partial dissociation of TR from TRE acting through TR-DBD and, consequently, may disrupt normal brain development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current perspectives on the role of thyroid hormone in growth and development of cerebellum.
TL;DR: Overall, this review provides current findings regarding molecular mechanisms on TH action in cerebellar development and the effect of endocrine disruptors on brain development.
