The Na+-I- cotransporter of the thyroid: Characterisation of new inhibitors

SCOPUS: ar.jinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe

Inhibition of iodide transport in thyroid cells by dysidenin, a marine toxin, and some of its analogs.

Dysidenin, a hexachlorinated tripeptide-like molecule extracted from the sponge Dysidea herbacea, has lethal effects on fishes and some marine organisms. In an in vitro screening study, this molecule appeared to be a strong inhibitor of iodide transport in dog thyroid slices. Ouabain blocks iodide transport by inhibiting the Na+/K+ ATPase, which sustains the Na+ gradient needed to drive iodide transport. Dysidenin and ouabain block iodide transport with the same kinetics but not by the same mechanisms; dysidenin, unlike ouabain, did not inhibit 86Rb+ uptake or increase its efflux. Inhibitors of chloride channels or carriers did not reduce the T/M value of 131I-, with the exception of phloretin, a relatively nonspecific anion transport blocker. Monesin (or Na+ ionophores) but not dysidenin clearly increased 22Na+ efflux in tracerpreloaded thyroid slices treated with ouabain. This suggests that dysidenin does not act as a chloride channel inhibitor or a Na+ ionophore. Increasing the iodide concentration in the medium decreased the inhibition by dysidenin, suggesting a pseudocompetitive type of effect. To study the structure-activity relationship of dysidenin, several hydrolytic products and synthetic derivatives have been prepared. The data obtained showed that the inhibition is sensitive to stereochemical effects and that the trichloromethyl terminus of the molecule is recognized by the binding site. The presence of only one trichloromethyl terminus is sufficient to exert the inhibitory effect.In VitroJournal ArticleResearch Support, Non-U.S. Gov'tinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe

Biosynthesis and metabolism of 2-iodohexadecanal in cultured dog thyroid cells.

2-Iodohexadecanal (2-IHDA) is a major thyroid iodolipid. It mimics the main regulatory effects of iodide on thyroid metabolism: inhibition of H2O2 production and of adenylyl cyclase. The biosynthesis of 2-IHDA and its metabolism have been investigated in cultured dog thyroid cells maintained in a differentiated state by forskolin. Incubation of these cells with [9,10-3H]hexadecan-1-ol or [9,10-3H]palmitic acid labeled several phospholipids, but [9, 10-3H]hexadecan-1-ol was selectively incorporated into plasmenylethanolamine. In the presence of an exogenous H2O2 generating system (glucose oxidase), iodide induced the production of [9,10-3H]2-IHDA from [9,10-3H]hexadecan-1-ol-labeled cells but not from [9,10-3H]palmitic acid-labeled cells. 2-IHDA was also generated during the lactoperoxidase-catalyzed iodination of brain and heart plasmalogens, and of ethyl hexadec-1-enyl ether, a synthetic vinyl ether-containing compound. Taken together, these results show that thyroid 2-IHDA is derived from plasmenylethanolamine via an attack of reactive iodine on the vinyl ether group. 2-Iodohexadecan-1-ol (2-IHDO) was also detected in these studies; it was formed later than 2-IHDA, and thyroid cells converted exogenous 2-IHDA into 2-IHDO in a time-dependent way. The ratio of 2-IHDO/2-IHDA increased with H2O2 production and decreased as a function of iodide concentration. An aldehyde-reducing activity was detected in subcellular fractions of the horse thyroid. No formation of 2-iodohexadecanoic acid could be detected. Reduction into the biologically inactive 2-IHDO is thus a major metabolic pathway of 2-IHDA in dog thyrocytes.Journal ArticleResearch Support, Non-U.S. Gov'tinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe
