This study examined the interaction of exogenous thyroid hormone 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3) and functional overload on skeletal muscle myosin heavy chain (MHC) expression, studied at both the protein and mRNA level of analysis. Animals were allocated to the following groups: 1) normal control, 2) overload control, 3) hyperthyroid control, and 4) hyperthyroid+overload. Overload of the rat plantaris was accomplished by surgical removal of its synergists (soleus and gastrocnemius), and the animals were made hyperthyroid by injections of T3 (350 micrograms/kg every other day). After overload of 8 wk, muscle enlargement occurred by 53% for both overload groups (P < 0.05). This was accompanied by a 330 and 82% increase in the relative content of type I and IIa MHC, respectively, and a corresponding decrease by 16 and 44% in type IIx and IIb MHC, respectively, in the overload control group (P < 0.05 vs. normal control). Changes in the relative and absolute content of mRNA for these MHCs paralleled the protein response. Exogenous T3 completely reversed the upregulation of type I MHC and the downregulation of type IIx associated with overload at both the protein and mRNA level (P < 0.05). However, T3 was only partially effective in blunting the downregulation of IIb MHC and the upregulation of IIa MHC (protein and mRNA) accompanying the overload.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
