Abstract excerpt
Transient expression assays using a luciferase (LUC) reporter gene are often used in studies of positive and negative thyroid hormone response elements (TREs) or of wild-type and mutated thyroid hormone receptors (TRs). However, unliganded TR (the beta isoform > than the alpha) increases LUC expression from 2 different TK-LUC vectors in several cell types, especially JEG-3 cells, and 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3)...
