To understand the role of thyroid hormone in metastasis, we studied the expression of the anti-metastatic nm23 gene in eight human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell lines. These cells differentially expressed the anti-metastatic nm23 gene. A low level of nm23 proteins was found to have a high in vitro invasive activity which correlated closely with an overexpression of the thyroid hormone beta 1 nuclear receptor (h-TR beta 1). Concurrent with the down-regulation of h-TR beta 1, the invasive activity of HCC cells was suppressed by the thyroid hormone, 3,3',5-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3). These results indicate that the invasive activity of HCC cells was regulated by T3, suggesting that T3 could be involved in modulating the functions of nm23.
