Thyroid Hormone Receptors Suppress Pituitary Tumor Transforming Gene 1 Activity in Hepatoma
13 Mar 2008
Abstract excerpt
Pituitary tumor transforming gene 1 (PTTG1) is expressed in most tumors. However, whether thyroid hormone (T(3)) and its receptors (TR) regulate PTTG1 in human hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) remains unclear. Previous cDNA microarrays revealed PTTG1 is down-regulated by T(3)/TR. This study investigated the significance of PTTG1 regulation by T(3) in HCC cells. The PTTG1 mRNA and protein expression were repressed...
