Abstract excerpt
Studies using mice deficient in thyroid hormone receptors (TR) indicate that the two TR isoforms, TRα1 and TRβ1, in addition to mediating overlapping biological activities of the thyroid hormone, T3, also mediate distinct functions. Mice harboring an identical dominant negative mutation (denoted PV) at the C terminus of TRα1 (Thra1(PV) mice) or β1 (Thrb(PV) mice) also exhibit distinct phenotypes. These knockin...
