The sodium iodide symporter and thyroid disease.
The movement of a variety of species from the iodine-rich environment of the sea to the relatively iodine-deficient land has necessitated the development of mechanisms which will trap more efficiently inorganic iodide (I – ) necessary for the formation of thyroid hormones (Venturi et al. , 2000). In man as in other mammals iodide uptake by the thyroid is mediated via a TSHdependent transmembran...

idase (TPO) and incorporation into tyrosyl residues along the thyroglobulin (Tg) backbone. The thyroid hormones T3 and T4 are synthesized by coupling of two iodotyrosine residues and stored in the colloid. All of these steps are stimulated by pituitary-derived thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), which interacts with the TSH receptor at the basolateral membrane of thyroidal cells, through the cAM...
متن کاملSodium iodide symporter in health and disease.
Radioiodine-concentrating activity in thyroid tissues has allowed the use of radioiodine as a diagnostic and therapeutic agent for patients with thyroid disorders such as well-differentiated thyroid cancer. However, some extrathyroidal tissues also take up radioiodine, contributing to unwanted side effects of radioiodine therapy. Now that the molecule that mediates radioiodine uptake, the sodiu...
متن کاملIdentification of in vivo phosphorylation sites and their functional significance in the sodium iodide symporter.
The Na+/I- symporter (NIS)-mediated iodide uptake activity is the basis for targeted radioiodide ablation of thyroid cancers. Although it has been shown that NIS protein is phosphorylated, neither the in vivo phosphorylation sites nor their functional significance has been reported. In this study, Ser-43, Thr-49, Ser-227, Thr-577, and Ser-581 were identified as in vivo NIS phosphorylation sites...
متن کاملDown-regulation of the Sodium/Iodide Symporter Explains
I radiation therapy of differentiated thyroid cancer may be compromised by thyroid stunning (i.e., a paradoxical inhibition of radioiodine uptake caused by radiation from a pretherapeutic diagnostic examination). The stunning mechanism is yet uncharacterized at the molecular level. We therefore investigated whether the expression of the sodium/ iodide symporter (NIS) gene is changed by irradiat...
