Thyroid hormone receptor (TR) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) co-regulate numerous peripheral metabolic responses. To examine potential crosstalk between PPARgamma and TRbeta in the hypothalamus, thyrotropin-releasing hormone (Trh) regulation in the newborn mouse hypothalamus was followed. QPCR showed PPARgamma to be expressed in the hypothalamus at this developmental stage. Intracerebral injection of PPARgamma agonists modified transcription from a TRH-luc construct introduced into the hypothalamus and increased serum thyroxine levels. Furthermore, shRNA-based in vivo PPARgamma knockdown amplified T(3)-independent transcription and PPARgamma overexpression dose-dependently abrogated T(3)-dependent Trh repression. Overexpression of retinoid X receptor-alpha (RXRalpha), the common heterodimeric partner of PPARgamma and TRbeta, rescued PPARgamma abrogation of T(3)-dependent repression. Thus, competition for RXR could represent one mechanism underlying this hypothalamic crosstalk between PPARgamma and TRbeta. These demonstrations of PPARgamma effects on hypothalamic Trh transcription in vivo consolidate the role of the TRH neuron as a central integrator of energy homeostasis.
