In Vitro

hepatocarcinomaLiothyronine (T3, 100 nM) stimulates the proliferation of hepatocarcinema cells in which TRβ1 is overexpressed^[1]. Liothyronine binds to the human β1 thyroid hormone receptor (hTRβ1), and changes its conformation. Liothyronine promotes growth, induces differentiation and regualtes metabolic effects^[2].

Cell Assay
^[1]

Thyroid hormone depleted (Td) serum is prepared. The growth of hepatocarcinoma cells in methylcellulose is performed. To determine the effect of Liothyronine (T3) on the growth of cells, cells are plated at a density of 3 × l0⁴ cells/60 mm dish on day 0, and incubated in medium containing 5% regular serum, 5% Td or 5% Td and 100 nM T3. The colony formation in methylcellulose is scored 3 weeks after initial plating^[1].

Help & FAQs

Do most proteins show cross-species activity?
Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
