T4, which is a major secretory product of the thyroid
gland, needs to be converted to T3 by iodothyronine
deiodinase to exert its biological activity. After the molecular
cloning of human type II iodothyronine deiodinase (DII) complementary
DNA, DII expression was unexpectedly detected in human skeletal muscle
tissue. In the present study, we have identified DII activity and DII
messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) in cultured human skeletal muscle
cells and studied the mechanisms involved in the regulation of DII
expression in those cells. All of the characteristics of the
deiodinating activity in cultured human skeletal muscle cells were
compatible with those of DII. Northern analysis has demonstrated that
DII mRNA, approximately 7.5 kb in size, was expressed in cultured human
skeletal muscle cells. DII mRNA and DII activity were rapidly increased
by (Bu)2cAMP, forskolin, or ß-adrenergic agonists and
were negatively regulated by thyroid hormones in cultured human
skeletal muscle cells. Although interleukin-1ß and interleukin-6 did
not decrease DII expression in cultured human skeletal muscle cells,
tumor necrosis factor-
decreased DII expression in those cells in a
dose-dependent manner. These data have demonstrated, for the first
time, that DII activity and DII mRNA are present in cultured human
skeletal muscle cells, and that the DII expression is stimulated by
ß-adrenergic mechanisms through a cAMP-mediated pathway and is
negatively regulated by thyroid hormones and tumor necrosis factor-
.
