1 7565801 Single strand DNA-binding proteins and thyroid transcription factor-1 conjointly regulate thyrotropin receptor gene expression.
2 7565801 An element, -186 to -176 base pairs (bp), in the minimal TSH receptor (TSHR) promoter binds thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1) and is important for both constitutive expression and TSH/cAMP-induced negative autoregulation of the TSHR in thyroid cells.
3 7565801 An element on the noncoding strand of the TSHR, contiguous with the 5'-end of the TTF-1 element, has single strand binding activity.
4 7565801 Thus, the single strand binding protein (SSBP) element also exists contiguous to the 5'-end of an upstream TTF-1 site, -881 to -866 bp; mutation of two conserved nucleotides in each SSBP element results in the loss of SSBP binding and cross-competition.
5 7565801 Transfection experiments indicate that full, constitutive TSHR gene expression in FRTL-5 thyroid cells requires the binding of both SSBPs and TTF-1, since mutation of either element halves thyroid-specific promoter activity, whereas mutation of both decreases promoter activity to values near those of a control vector.
6 7565801 Transfection experiments with rat liver cells support their independent activities and show that the SSBP site contributes to TSHR gene expression in non-thyroid tissue.
7 7565801 The SSBPs function conjointly with TTF-1 in thyroid-specific, TSH/cAMP-induced negative autoregulation of the TSHR.
8 7565801 Thus, TSH or forskolin-treated FRTL-5 cells coordinately decrease TSHR RNA levels and TSHR DNA binding to both the SSBPs and TTF-1; also the maximal TSH/cAMP-induced decrease in gene expression requires both elements.
9 7565801 The TSH-induced effect in each case is inhibited by cycloheximide; the TSH-induced decrease in SSBP/DNA complex formation requires the presence of insulin or calf serum, exactly as does TSH-induced down-regulation of TSHR RNA levels.
10 7565801 In sum, full, constitutive expression of the TSHR in thyroid cells requires TTF-1 and the SSBPs to bind separate, contiguous elements on the TSHR promoter.
11 7565801 The role of the SSBP and TTF-1 sites in constitutive TSHR expression and in TSH/cAMP-induced negative regulation of the TSHR is, therefore, additive and independent.

140 8923467 Mutation analyses indicate that it is functionally distinct from the TTF-1 element and is important for the constitutive expression and TSH/cAMP-induced negative autoregulation of the TSHR in thyroid cells but only constitutive expression in nonthyroid cells.
141 8923467 In this report we identify a cDNA encoding a single strand-binding protein (SSBP) that forms a specific complex with the noncoding strand of the TSHR, contiguous with the 5'-end of both TTF-1 elements; we term it SSBP-1.
142 8923467 SSBP-1 increases promoter activity when contransfected with heterologous SV40 promoter-chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) chimeras containing the upstream SSBP-binding element from the TSHR promoter or with TSHR promoter-CAT chimeras containing both or only the downstream SSBP element.
143 8923467 TSH/cAMP decreases SSBP-1 RNA levels, as well as SSBP-1/TSHR DNA complex formation, in functioning rat FRTL-5 thyroid cells but not nonfunctioning FRT thyroid or Buffalo rat liver cells that have no TTF-1.

170 9564838 The single strand binding protein (SSBP-1) is a positive regulator of TSH receptor gene expression and binds to an element with a GXXXXG motif.
171 9564838 In this report we show that SSBP-1, when overexpressed in FRTL-5 thyroid cells, is a positive regulator of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR alpha class II gene expression, as is IFNgamma or the class II trans-activator (CIITA).
172 9564838 IFNgamma reverses the ability of TSH to decrease endogenous SSBP-1 RNA levels.
173 9564838 Also, whereas SSBP-1 transfection does not cause any increase in IFNgamma-induced exogenous promoter activity, transfection of SSBP-1 and CIITA additively increases endogenous class II RNA levels to levels measured in cells treated with IFNgamma.
174 9564838 Further, competition studies show that SSBP-1 binding is necessary for formation of the double strand protein/DNA complexes that are seen in electrophoretic mobility shift assays when the class II 5'-flanking region is incubated with extracts from IFNgamma-treated FRTL-5 cells and that have been previously associated with IFNgamma-induced aberrant class II expression.
175 9564838 These data suggest that SSBP-1 is involved in the action of IFNgamma to overcome the normally suppressed state of the class II gene; it functions together with CIITA, whose expression is independently increased by IFNgamma.
176 9564838 These data suggest that high levels of endogenous SSBP-1 are insufficient to cause aberrant class II expression, but, rather, TSH or IFNgamma treatment additionally modulates the cell, albeit differently, such that transfected or endogenous SSBP-1, respectively, can express its positive regulatory activity.
177 9564838 The effect of TSH is consistent with reports indicating that TSH enhances the ability of IFNgamma to increase class II gene expression despite the fact IFNgamma increases endogenous SSBP-1 to only the same levels as in cells untreated with TSH.
178 9564838 As SSBP-1 is modulated by IFNgamma and is involved in class I and TSH receptor as well as class II gene expression in FRTL-5 cells, the sum of the data supports the hypotheses that common transcription factors regulate all three genes, and their altered activities may contribute to the development of autoimmunity.
