We have examined the role of rapidly turning over proteins in the T3 regulation of multiple rat hepatic genes. T3 induction of the rapidly responsive mRNA-S14 was markedly inhibited by cycloheximide (1 mg/100 g BW) or emetine (3 mg/100 g) injected ip 30 min before T3 (mRNA-S14 concentration was only 35% of that in T3-treated controls 8.5 h after administration of either protein synthesis inhibitor, P less than 0.01). Cycloheximide exhibited a similar effect on each of five other more slowly responsive T3 regulated genes. When cycloheximide was given 10 h after T3, the expected T3-induced rise of mRNA-S7 activity was completely prevented, and for mRNA-S4 activity the anticipated rise was blunted to 40% of T3-treated control (P less than 0.05). Cycloheximide caused sharp declines in the activity of two other mRNAs, S6 and S8, which because of shorter lag times of response to T3, had already risen when the drug was given. Values for both these mRNAs returned to the baseline hypothyroid level within 6 h of injection of the drug and remained low for a further 8 h (P less than 0.05). The expected deinduction of mRNA-S10 by T3 was also markedly modified. T3 lowered this mRNA to 11% of the hypothyroid control after 8 h, whereas cycloheximide given 30 min before the hormone blunted this fall to only 72% of control (P less than 0.01). Thus there appeared to be a 70% reduction in the rate of T3 induced fall of mRNA-S10. We did not find that cycloheximide caused a generalized decrease in poly (A)+ RNA mass.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
