The dynamics of the induction of nuclear tri-iodothyronine receptors and mitochondrial α-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase were studied in rat liver after a single injection of tri-iodothyronine. The maximal binding capacity (Cmax.) and association constant (Ka) 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 α-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. α-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 Ka 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.

RNA has been isolated and fractionated from rat liver nuclei by a sequence of salt extractions into four subfractions: namely nucleoplasmic, deoxyribonucleoprotein-associated, ribonucleoprotein-associated, and nucleolar fractions.Study of 14C-methyl-methionine labeling indicates that the nucleolar RNA fraction isolated by the present procedure is, in fact, of nucleolar origin while the other three fractions are essentially of extranucleolar origin.The effects of growth hormone and hydrocortisone on the nuclear RNA synthesis have been further studied using the present isolation and double-labeling techniques. Both hormones cause an increase in the incorporation of labeled orotic acid into all types of RNA in all four nuclear subfractions. However, the stimulatory effect of growth hormone is found mainly in the 18–28 S and 45–60 S regions of the nucleolar fraction and in regions of the entire gradient of the nucleoplasmic fraction, whereas the stimulatory effect of hydrocortisone is localized mainly in the 10–28 S regions of the nucleolar fraction and in the 4 S and 10–18 S regions of the ribonucleoprotein fraction.The present report suggests that there are qualitative as well as quantitative differences in the action of growth hormone and hydrocortisone on the synthesis of RNA in liver nucleus. The mode of action of the two hormones is discussed.
