Thyroid hormone receptors TRα and TRβ
Thyroid hormone receptors TRα and TRβ; Liothyronine sodium hydrate is a potent agonist of TRα and TRβ. These receptors are nuclear receptors that regulate gene transcription in response to thyroid hormone. By binding to these receptors, the compound modulates the expression of genes involved in metabolism, growth, differentiation, and development. |

| ln Vitro |
Liothyronine sodium hydrate interacts to the human thyroid hormone receptor (hTRβ1), causing conformational alterations. Liothyronine sodium hydrate is known to stimulate growth, induce differentiation, and control metabolism [2].
In vitro, Liothyronine sodium hydrate binds to hTRα and hTRβ with Kis of 2.33 nM. It is used in cell-based assays to study thyroid hormone signaling and its effects on cell proliferation, differentiation, and metabolism. It promotes pancreatic β-cell differentiation from human pluripotent stem cells and inhibits the proliferation of pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Liothyronine sodium hydrate is used to study thyroid hormone function. It is administered to animal models to investigate its effects on metabolism, growth, and development. It is also used in research on hypothyroidism, stroke, and cognitive dysfunction.

| Enzyme Assay |
To understand the structural basis in the hormone-dependent transcriptional regulation of human beta 1 thyroid hormone receptor (h-TR beta 1), we studied the conformational changes of h-TR beta 1 induced by binding of 3,3',5-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3). h-TR beta 1 was treated with trypsin alone or in the presence of T3, thyroid hormone response element (TRE) or T3 together with TREs. Without T3, h-TR beta 1 was completely digested by trypsin. Binding of TREs had no effect on the tryptic digestion pattern. However, T3-bound h-TR beta 1 became resistant to tryptic digestion and yielded trypsin-resistant peptide fragments with molecular weight of 28,000 and 24,000. Chymotryptic digestion also yielded a T3-protected 24 Kd peptide fragment. Using anti-h-TR beta 1 antibodies and amino acid sequencing, the 28 Kd fragment was identified to be Ser202-Asp456. The 24 Kd tryptic fragments were found to be Lys239-Asp456 and Phe240-Asp456. The 24 Kd chymotryptic fragment was identified to be Lys235-Asp456. The structural changes as a result of T3 binding could serve as a transducing signal to modulate the gene regulating activity of h-TR beta 1[2].
In vitro, the binding affinity of Liothyronine sodium hydrate to TRα and TRβ is measured using radioligand binding assays. The Ki values of 2.33 nM for both receptors are determined. Cell-based assays are used to study its effects on gene expression and cellular function. |
| Cell Assay |
To understand the role of thyroid hormone nuclear receptors (TRs) in hepatocarcinogenesis, we characterized the TRs in nine human hepatocarcinoma cell lines. The expression of TR proteins is receptor subtype- and cell type-dependent. TR alpha 1 protein expresses similarly at a low level in each of the nine cell lines. In contrast, TR beta 1 is overexpressed in hepatocarcinoma cells which are poorly differentiated. Furthermore, thyroid hormone was found to stimulate the proliferation of cells in which TR beta 1 is overexpressed. These results suggest that TR beta 1 is most likely involved in the differentiation and proliferation of hepatocarcinoma cells. Our studies have shed new light in the understanding of the role of TRs in liver carcinogenesis[1].

| Additional Infomation |
Liothyronine sodium is the sodium salt of Liothyronine. Liothyronine sodium is considered to be more active than levothyroxine, with a rapid onset of action (within hours) and a shorter duration of action. It is used to treat hypothyroidism, especially hypothyroid coma. It contains 3,3',5-triiodo-L-thyroxine salt. Liothyronine sodium is the sodium salt form of Liothyronine, the synthetic form of the levorotatory isomer of the natural thyroid hormone triLiothyronine (T3). Liothyronine sodium binds to the nuclear thyroid receptor, which in turn binds to the thyroid hormone response element of the target gene. Therefore, Liothyronine sodium induces the expression of genes required for normal growth and development. Liothyronine sodium is more potent and has a faster onset of action than thyroxine (T4). Thyroid hormone T3 is normally synthesized and secreted by the thyroid gland, but its content is much lower than that of thyroxine (T4). Most T3 originates from the single deiodination at the 5' position of the Liothyronine ring in T4. The hormone ultimately transported and utilized by tissues is mainly T3.
Liothyronine sodium hydrate is also known as 3,3',5-Triiodo-L-thyronine sodium salt hydrate and T3 sodium salt. It is an active form of thyroid hormone and a potent TRα and TRβ agonist. |
