TRC150094, a novel functional analog of iodothyronines, reduces adiposity by increasing energy expenditure and fatty acid oxidation in rats receiving a high‐fat diet

Abstract: Chronic overnutrition and modern lifestyles are causing a worldwide epidemic of obesity and associated comorbidities, which is creating a demand to identify underlying biological mechanisms and to devise effective treatments. In rats receiving a high-fat diet (HFD), we analyzed the effects of a 4-wk administration of a novel functional analog of iodothyronines, TRC150094 (TRC). HFD-TRC rats exhibited increased energy expenditure (+24% vs. HFD rats; P<0.05) and body weight (BW) gain comparable to that of standa… Show more

“…A feature of 'nonreceptor-mediated' mechanisms of iodothyronines is the plurality of TH derivatives, including T 2 , or of functional analogs that may initiate specific actions and might have higher potency than T 3 (Cioffi et al 2010b). The ability of THs to regulate energy utilization as well as their role in promoting mitochondrial uncoupling of substrate oxidation from ATP synthesis have been long recognized.…”

“…On the other hand, SRT1720, a SIRT1-specific activator that attenuated the deleterious effects of high-fat diet intake, mostly by triggering lipid oxidation in metabolic active tissues, as skeletal muscle, liver, and BAT (Feige et al 2008), and, specifically in BAT, SRT1720 were also able to increase TRa and TRb mRNA expression (Feige et al 2008). In addition, both T 2 and TRC150094, a pharmacological functional analog of T 2 , reduced deleterious metabolic effects of highfat diet in rats, and the mechanism may be related to their ability to increase SIRT1 activity in the liver (Cioffi et al 2010, de Lange et al 2011. Interestingly, pituitary SIRT1 is preferentially co-localized with TSH cells and SIRT1 overexpression and knockdown in pituitary cells resulted in increased and decreased TSH secretion respectively (Akieda-Asai et al 2010).…”
