    Abstract:
    C-erbA receptors and v-erbA have been shown to functionally interact with 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-inducible gene expression. These proteins enhance trans-activation by c-jun, and the c-erbA receptors in the presence of thyroid hormone repress TPA and c-jun induction of transcription. Also, v-erbA can abrogate T3-mediated repression. We have examined how dominant negative (S and CL) and nondominant negative (G-H) receptors cloned from various patients with thyroid hormone resistance syndromes affect expression of the collagenase promoter induced with TPA. The CL receptor (ARG315HIS mutation) has a 2-fold reduction in T3-binding affinity compared with human c-erbA beta 1 wild-type (WT) receptor, whereas the G-H receptor (ARG311HIS) and S receptor (deletion, THR codon 332) have T3-binding affinities reduced by 100-fold and greater than 100-fold, respectively. These mutant receptors were cotransfected with a collagenase promoter (-1200 to +63 base pairs) chloramphenicol acetyltransferase reporter gene (Col-CAT) into COS-7 cells. Levels of CAT reporter gene expression after transient transfection were determined in the presence or absence of 3-10 nM T3 and the presence or absence of 100 nM TPA. Unoccupied CL receptor and G-H and S receptors stimulated TPA-induced Col-CAT expression 1.5- to 9-fold. The CL receptor with thyroid hormone totally repressed TPA induction of the collagenase receptor. In the presence of thyroid hormone, the enhancing effects by S and G-H receptors on TPA-induced Col-CAT expression were unaffected and minimally diminished, respectively.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
