| Research Abstract |
In rat thyroid cell line FRTL5, thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) stimulated protein kinase C (PKC) measured by binding of phorbol-dibutylate. Interferon (IFN) gamma dose dependently suppressed this stimulation. The suppression was reproduced by non-gamma IFN, and potentiated by tumor necrosis factor. On the other hand, inhibitors of PKC such as staurosporine, H-7, and H-9 stimulated iodine uptake in TSH-deprived FRTL5 cells, additive to IFN-driven enhancement. The 3 PKC inhibitors suppressed TSH stimulation of iodine uptake, while IFN act synergistically with TSH in this regard. The results imply IFN inhibits PKC activity via mechanisms different from that of other inhibitors.
