Thyroid hormone and hemodynamic regulation of beta-myosin heavy chain promoter in the heart

Abstract

Thyroid hormone exerts marked effects on cardiovascular function. Expression of cardiac alpha- and beta-myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoforms can be altered in response to thyroid hormone as well as by hemodynamic changes imposed on the heart. The molecular mechanisms that mediate these changes are not completely known. We studied the contractile and thyroid hormone responsiveness of the betaMHC promoter in both cultured cardiac myocytes and in vivo by direct DNA transfer. Using transient transfection of neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, the activities of recombinant reporter plasmids containing betaMHC 5'-flanking sequences terminating at positions -2250, -1145, -670, and -354 were decreased significantly in cultures containing L-T3 (50 nM). Similar deletion analysis showed that 5'-flanking regions terminating within -2250 to -151 bp were contractility responsive; however, deletion to position -126 attenuated this response. In vivo betaMHC promoter activity, determined by injecting the recombinant plasmid into the myocardium, was significantly higher by 2-fold in hyperthyroid than in euthyroid ventricles (2.47 +/- 0.41 vs. 1.33 +/- 0.25 luciferase/ chloramphenicol acetyltransferase; P<0.05). Increased ventricular workload, produced by ...Continue Reading
