Title in Portuguese
Efeito da administração aguda de iodo na regulação da expressão do gene do co-transportador de sódio-iodeto (NIS) - estudo in vivo e in vitro.

Abstract in Portuguese
O iodo em excesso promove o efeito Wolff-Chaikoff. Oligominerais já foram descritos como potenciais reguladores da expressão de proteínas. Tornou-se interessante avaliar se o iodo interferiria com a expressão do mRNA da NIS, em curtos períodos de tempo. Foram realizados, em ratos e células (de 30 min24h), estudos de expressão, comprimento de cauda poli-A e recrutamento para polissomos, do mRNA de NIS. Observou-se, in vivo e in vitro, que o excesso de iodo promoveu diminuição da expressão e do comprimento da cauda poli-A do mRNA de NIS, em todos os períodos estudados, além de promover menor recrutamento deste mRNA para os polissomos. A diminuição da cauda poli-A do mRNA de NIS pode ter aumentado sua instabilidade/degradação e também ter sido responsável por uma menor eficiência de tradução deste transcrito. Conclui-se que: (a) o iodo regula pós-transcricionalmente a expressão gênica da NIS, sendo fundamental nos processos que norteiam o efeito Wolff-Chaikoff e (b) oligoelementos têm relevância na regulação da expressão de proteínas relacionadas ao seu transporte.

Abstract in English
Iodide in excess exerts the Wolff-Chaikoff effect. It is described that some minerals can regulate the expression of proteins. This study aimed to investigate if the iodide could modify the expression of NIS mRNA, in short periods of time. Rats and cells, divided in time-groups of 30 min up to 24h, were used in studies of expression, poly-A tale length and polysomal profile of NIS mRNA. Both in vivo and in vitro studies showed that the iodide treatment promoted a reduction in the expression and the poly-A length of NIS mRNA, in all time-groups, and decreased its recruitment to the polysomes. It is possible that the reduction of NIS mRNA poly-A tale length has increased the instability/degradation of this transcript, and impaired the translation efficiency of it. Concluding: a) the iodine exerts a post-transcriptional regulation of NIS mRNA expression, being essencial in the processes that guide the Wollf-Chaikoff effect; b) the oligoelements have an extremely important role in the expression regulation of proteins related to their transport.
