Radioiodine remains the only tumoricidal therapy for disseminated thyroid carcinomas; however, dedifferentiated tumors lose the expression of human sodium–iodide symporter (hNIS) gene, and cannot respond to this treatment. Previous studies suggested that a trans-active protein factor (NIS-repressor) represses endogenous hNIS transcription, likely contributing to the loss of radioiodine uptake, and defined the NIS-repressor binding site (NRBS) in the proximal hNIS promoter. Using electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA), we found evidence of NIS-repressor in the nuclear extract from KAK-1 cells, and confirmed this result using nuclear extracts prepared from multiple verified thyroid cell lines. Luciferase reporter assays of hNIS promoter constructs and EMSA were used to define two core sequences, NRBS-P and NRBS-D, in the hNIS promoter as the binding sites for NIS-repressor. Electrophoretic analysis of KAK-1 nuclear extract proteins cross-linked with NRBS-P suggests that NIS-repressor is a protein complex. Analysis of KAK-1 nuclear extract proteins bound to NRBS-P, via liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectroscopy, demonstrated poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) as a NIS-repressor component. Pharmacological inhibition of PARP-1 enzymatic activity using PJ34 stimulated both the luciferase reporter activity driven by hNIS promoter and the endogenous hNIS mRNA level. Supershift studies suggest that thyroid transcription factor 2 (TTF-2) is also associated with the NIS-repressor complex. NIS-repressor, including its PARP-1 component, presents a potential therapeutic target to restore radioiodine uptake in dedifferentiated thyroid carcinomas.

The recent cloning of the gene encoding the sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) has enabled better characterization of the molecular mechanisms underlying iodide transport, thus opening the way to clarifying its role in thyroid diseases. Several studies, at both the mRNA and the protein expression levels, have demonstrated that TSH, the primary regulator of iodide uptake, upregulates NIS gene expression and NIS protein abundance, both in vitro and in vivo. However, other factors, including iodide, retinoic acid, transforming growth factor-beta, interleukin-1alpha and tumour necrosis factor alpha, may participate in the regulation of NIS expression. Investigation of NIS mRNA expression in different thyroid tissues has revealed increased levels of expression in Graves' disease and toxic adenomas, whereas a reduction or loss of NIS transcript was detected in differentiated thyroid carcinomas, despite the expression of other specific thyroid markers. NIS mRNA was also detected in non-thyroid tissues able to concentrate radioiodine, including salivary glands, stomach, thymus and breast. The production of specific antibodies against the NIS has facilitated study of the expression of the symporter protein. Despite of the presence of high levels of human (h)NIS mRNA, normal thyroid glands exhibit a heterogeneous expression of NIS protein, limited to the basolateral membrane of the thyrocytes. By immunohistochemistry, staining of hNIS protein was stronger in Graves' and toxic adenomas and reduced in thyroid carcinomas. Measurement of iodide uptake by thyroid cancer cells is the cornerstone of the follow-up and treatment of patients with thyroid cancer. However, radioiodide uptake is found only in about 67% of patients with persistent or recurrent disease. Several studies have demonstrated a decrease in or a loss of NIS expression in primary human thyroid carcinomas, and immunohistochemical studies have confirmed this considerably decreased expression of the NIS protein in thyroid cancer tissues, suggesting that the low expression of NIS may represent an early abnormality in the pathway of thyroid cell transformation, rather than being a consequence of cancer progression. The relationship between radioiodine uptake and NIS expression by thyroid cancer cells require further study. New strategies, based on manipulation of NIS expression, to obtain NIS gene reactivation or for use as NIS gene therapy in the treatment of radiosensitive cancer, are also being investigated.

OBJECTIVE: The acute decrease in iodide organification in the thyroid in response to excess iodide is termed the acute Wolff-Chaikoff effect and normal organification resumes in spite of continued high plasma iodide concentrations (escape from the acute Wolff-Chaikoff effect). We have recently reported that large doses of iodide given to rats chronically decrease the sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) mRNA and protein, suggesting that escape is due to a decrease in NIS and subsequent iodide transport. We have now studied the effect of excess iodide on NIS in FRTL-5 cells to further explore the mechanisms whereby excess iodide decreases NIS. DESIGN: FRTL-5 cells were employed and were incubated in the presence or absence of various concentrations of iodide. NIS mRNA and protein and the turnover of NIS were assessed. METHODS: NIS mRNA was measured by Northern analysis, NIS protein by Western analysis and NIS turnover by pulse-chase labeling experiments. RESULTS: Iodide (10(-) mol/l) had no effect on NIS mRNA in FRTL-5 cells at 24 and 48 h compared with cells cultured in the absence of iodide. However, excess iodide decreased NIS protein by 50% of control values at 24 h and by 70% at 48 h. This effect of iodide was dose dependent. Pulse-chase experiments demonstrated that there was no effect of iodide on new NIS protein synthesis and that the turnover of NIS protein in the presence of iodide was 27% faster than in the absence of added iodide. CONCLUSIONS: Excess iodide does not decrease NIS mRNA in FRTL-5 cells but does decrease NIS protein, suggesting that in this in vitro thyroid cell model iodide modulates NIS, at least in part, at a post-transcriptional level. This iodide-induced decrease in NIS protein appears to be due, at least partially, to an increase in NIS protein turnover.

Background: The MEK (mitogen-activated protein kinase)–inhibitor selumetinib led to increased radioiodine uptake and retention in a subgroup of patients suffering from radioiodine refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (RR-DTC). We aimed to analyse the effect of selumetinib on the expression of sodium iodide symporter (NIS; SLC5A5) and associated miRNAs in thyroid cancer cells. Methods: Cytotoxicity was assessed by viability assay in TPC1, BCPAP, C643 and 8505C thyroid cancer cell lines. NIS, hsa-let-7f-5p, hsa-miR-146b-5p, and hsa-miR-146b-3p expression was determined by quantitative RT-PCR. NIS protein was detected by Western blot. Radioiodine uptake was performed with a Gamma counter. Results: Selumetinib caused a significant reduction of cell viability in all thyroid cancer cell lines. NIS transcript was restored by selumetinib in all cell lines. Its protein level was found up-regulated in TPC1 and BCPAP cells and down-regulated in C643 and 8505C cells after treatment with selumetinib. Treatment with selumetinib caused a down-regulation of hsa-let-7f-5p, hsa-miR-146b-5p and hsa-miR-146b-3p in TPC1 and BCPAP cells. In 8505C cells, a stable or down-regulated hsa-miR-146b-5p was detected after 1h and 48h of treatment. C643 cells showed stable or up-regulated hsa-let-7f-5p, hsa-miR-146b-5p and hsa-miR-146b-3p. Selumetinib treatment caused an increase of radioiodine uptake, which was significant in TPC1 cells. Conclusions: The study shows for the first time that selumetinib restores NIS by the inhibition of its related targeting miRNAs. Further studies are needed to clarify the exact mechanism activated by hsa-miR-146b-5p, hsa-miR-146b-3p and hsa-let7f-5p to stabilise NIS. Restoration of NIS could represent a milestone for the treatment of advanced RR-DTC.
