The dynamics of the induction of nuclear tri-iodothyronine receptors and mitochondrial alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase were studied in rat liver after a single injection of tri-iodothyronine. The maximal binding capacity (C(max.)) and association constant (K(a)) of the nuclear receptors were determined by Scatchard analyses with and without correction for the endogenous tri-iodothyronine measured by radioimmunoassay. The administration of tri-iodothyronine induced sequential increases in the concentration of nuclear receptors and alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase activity in the liver. The nuclear-receptor concentration was increased to 2.5 times that in the hypothyroid rat 1 day after the administration of hormone, and then decreased, with a half-life of about 2 days. alpha-Glycerophosphate dehydrogenase activity changed in parallel with the nuclear-receptor concentration, showing a delayed response. The total amount of non-histone protein in the liver was significantly increased 3 days after the administration. It seems likely therefore that the tri-iodothyronine-induced increase in nuclear-receptor concentration is responsible, at least in part, for the induction of this enzyme. The possibility is also suggested that nuclear receptors may be one of the non-histone proteins selectively synthesized at an early stage of the hormonal stimulation. Throughout the time course, the K(a) values of the nuclear receptors for tri-iodothyronine remained unchanged, when corrected for endogenous tri-iodothyronine bound to the non-histone proteins, although they were apparently changed when the correction was not made. The results obtained provide further evidence for hormonal modulation of the nuclear receptors which is closely linked with the hormonal effect.
