PI3K is involved in the IGF-I inhibition of TSH-induced sodium/iodide symporter gene expression.

Abstract excerpt

Here we studied the role of IGF-I on the regulation of the sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) gene expression in FRTL-5 thyroid cells. IGF-I did not modify NIS mRNA levels but inhibited TSH- and forskolin-induced NIS mRNA expression in a dose-dependent manner. We explored the signaling pathways by which IGF-I mediates the repression of NIS expression. Inhibition of either the MAPK kinase or PKC activities had no...
