Role of Selenium Intake for Risk and Development of Graves’ Disease

ABSTRACT: The trace element selenium (Se) plays an important role in thyroid hormone metabolism. Low Se intake is associated with atuoimmune hypothyroidism. The interaction of Se and Graves’ disease (GD) is only poorly characterized. We have investigated the importance of dietary Se supply for GD by performing a more in-depth analysis of a large cross-sectional study of 6152 participants from two counties within the Shaanxi Province, China, which are characterized by different habitual Se intakes, and studied the effects of different dietary Se supply (0.02, 0.18, 0.6 or 2.0 ppm Se) on disease development in a mouse model of GD. In the cross-sectional study, prevalence of GD in the two areas of different Se intake was similar, and the Se status of GD patients was not different from healthy control subjects. The dietary Se supply in the animal model was not affecting thyroid hormone levels, malondialdehyde concentrations, total antioxidant capacity or the titer of GD-causing TSH receptor autoantibodies (TRAb). Expression analysis of transcripts in spleen indicated regulatory effects of Se intake on genes implicated in the immune response, erythropoiesis and oxygen status. However, the humoral immune response including the ratio of CD4/CD8 or Th1/Th2 cells, and the concentration of Treg cells were similar between the experimental groups despite their varying Se intakes. Our data from both the epidemiological analysis and animal experiment do not indicate a major role of Se in the development of GD, and highlight that autoimmune hypothyroidism and GD differ in their relation to Se status.

Selenium toxicity but not deficient or super-nutritional selenium status vastly alters the transcriptome in rodents

Project description:Protein and mRNA levels for several selenoproteins, such as glutathione peroxidase-1 (Gpx1), are down-regulated dramatically by selenium (Se) deficiency. Selenoprotein levels in rats increase sigmoidally with increasing dietary Se and reach defined plateaus at the Se requirement, making them sensitive biomarkers for Se deficiency, but not high for Se status. Biomarkers for high Se status are needed as super-nutritional Se intakes are associated with beneficial and adverse health outcomes, but conventional biomarkers are not especially useful above the Se requirement. To characterize Se regulation of the transcriptome, we conducted 3 microarray experiments in weanling mice and rats fed Se-deficient diets supplemented with levels of Se up to 5 µg Se/g diet.

Four selenoproteins, protein biosynthesis, and Wnt signalling are particularly sensitive to limited selenium intake in mouse colon

Project description:Selenium is an essential micronutrient. Its recommended daily allowance is not attained by a significant proportion of the population in many countries and its intake has been suggested to affect colorectal carcinogenesis. Therefore, microarrays were used to determine how both selenoprotein and global gene expression patterns in the mouse colon were affected by marginal selenium deficiency comparable to variations in human dietary intakes. Two groups of 12 mice each were fed a selenium-deficient (0.086mg Se/kg) or a selenium-adequate (0.15mg Se/kg) diet. After 6wk, plasma selenium level, liver, and colon glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity in the deficient group was 12, 34, and 50%, respectively, of that of the adequate group. Differential gene expression was analysed with mouse 44K whole genome microarrays. Pathway analysis by GenMAPP identified the protein biosynthesis pathway as most significantly affected, followed by inflammation, Delta-Notch and Wnt pathways. Selected gene expression changes were confirmed by quantitative real-time PCR. GPx1 and the selenoproteins W, H, and M, responded significantly to selenium intake making them candidates as biomarkers for selenium status. Thus, feeding a marginal selenium-deficient diet resulted in distinct changes in global gene expression in the mouse colon. Modulation of cancer-related pathways may contribute to the higher susceptibility to colon carcinogenesis in low selenium status.

A delicate balance on thyroid hormones controls metabolic health and longevity in mice

Project description:An inverse correlation between circulating thyroid hormone levels and longevity has been reported in several species and reduced thyroid hormone levels have been proposed as a biomarker for healthy aging and metabolic fitness in humans. However, hypothyroidism is a serious medical condition associated with reduced health and life expectancy. In this report, we show that severe and even subtle modulations on thyroid hormone levels leading to different forms of hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism produce an overall unhealthy status and reduced lifespan in mice. A mild reduction in circulating T4 levels (~10%) resulted in hepatic mitochondrial dysfunction, increased ROS production and oxidative damage accumulation. These actions may contribute to the development of metabolic disorders, increased prevalence of hepatocellular carcinomas and early mortality in mice. Our findings raise concerns regarding the development of interventions aiming to modulate thyroid hormones to promote healthy aging or lifespan extension in mammals.

Target genes of thyroid hormone in cerebellum neurons

Project description:Cerebellar post-natal development is particularly sensitive to thyroid hormone and low levels of thyroid hormone (hypothyroidism) result in permanent defects in cerebellar architecture and function. All cell types of the cerebellum are affected, but the main sign of hypothyroidism in mice is the persistence of the external granular layer, composed of mitotic neuronal precursors at P21. To make the genetic link between thyroid hormone and cerebellar development, we sought to identify new thyroid hormone target genes, in particular in granule cells which represent the vast majority of cerebellar cells.

GLIS3 is indispensable for TSH/TSHR-dependent thyroid hormone biosynthesis and follicular cell proliferation

Project description:Deficiency in Krüppel-like zinc finger transcription factor, GLI-Similar 3 (GLIS3) in humans is associated with the development of congenital hypothyroidism. However, the functions of GLIS3 in the thyroid gland and by what mechanism GLIS3-dysfunction causes hypothyroidism are unknown. In this study, we demonstrate that GLIS3 acts downstream of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH)/TSHR and is indispensable for TSH/TSHR-mediated induction of thyroid follicular cell proliferation and thyroid hormone biosynthesis. ChIP-Seq and promoter analysis revealed that GLIS3 is critical for the transcriptional activation of several genes required for thyroid hormone biosynthesis, including the iodide transporters Nis and Pds, indicating that these genes are directly regulated by GLIS3. The repression of cell proliferation regulatory genes is due to the inhibition of TSH-mediated activation of the mTORC1/RPS6 pathway as well as direct transcriptional regulation of several cell division-related genes by GLIS3. Consequently, GLIS3-deficiency prevents the development of goiter as well as the induction of inflammatory and fibrotic genes during chronic elevation of circulating TSH. Our study identifies GLIS3 as a new and key regulator of TSH/TSHR-mediated thyroid hormone biosynthesis and proliferation of thyroid follicular cells, and uncovers a mechanism by which GLIS3-deficiency causes congenital hypothyroidism and prevents goiter development.

Branched chain amino acids impact health and lifespan indirectly via amino acid balance and appetite control

Project description:Elevated branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) are associated with obesity and insulin resistance. How long-term dietary BCAAs impact late-life health and lifespan is unknown. Here, we show that when dietary BCAAs are varied against a fixed, isocaloric macronutrient background, long-term exposure to high BCAA diets led to hyperphagia, obesity and reduced lifespan. These effects were not due to elevated BCAA per se or hepatic mTOR activation, but rather the shift in balance between dietary BCAAs and other AAs, notably tryptophan and threonine. Increasing the ratio of BCAAs to these AAs resulted in hyperphagia and was linked to central serotonin depletion. Preventing hyperphagia by calorie restriction or pair-feeding averted the health costs of a high BCAA diet. Our data highlight a role for amino acid quality in energy balance and show that health costs of chronic high BCAA intakes were not due to intrinsic toxicity; rather, to hyperphagia driven by AA imbalance.

Effects of acute dietary zinc depletion on the gene expression profile of whole blood in human male adults

Project description:Even though the importance of adequate zinc intake has been known for around half a century, a reliable diagnostic tool to assess the dietary zinc status of individual humans or populations is in absence. The specific aim of this study was to examine differential expression of specific gene transcripts that occur when the dietary intake of zinc is acutely reduced below the dietary requirement for a period of ten days. Gene expression profiles of whole blood collected before and after dietary zinc restriction were determined by microarray analyses. The data provide potential signature genes of suboptimal zinc consumption and relevant bioinformatic interpretation indicate immune response and cell cycle regulation as biological processes associated with the zinc-responsive genes.

Microarray profile of CD19+ B cells from Graves' disease patients reveals potential molecular mechanisms associated with the proliferation of B cell

Project description:Hyperthyroidism is a kind of common autoimmune disease. It is widely accepted that B lymphocytes play a significant role in GD as they are the source of autoantibodies (TRAb) against the thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR). We previously observed B cells infiltrated in the thyroid tissue from GD patients was significantly higher than that in healthy controls.In this study, our flow cytometry results indicated that the proportion of B cells in GD patients is much higher than that in control. To explore the underlying pathological function of B cells in GD, a microarray profiles was performed in these isolated B cells.
