✦ Synopsis

The relationship between thyroid hormone (triiodothyronine, T(3)) and breast cancer is unclear. We studied the effect of the c-erbA/TR alpha proto-oncogene encoding a functional T(3) receptor (TR alpha 1), of its ligand T(3), and of its retroviral, mutated counterpart, the v-erbA oncogene, on the proliferation capacity of nontumorigenic mammary epithelial cells (EpH4). We found that EpH4 cells expressing ectopically TR (EpH4 + TR alpha 1) or v-erbA (EpH4 + v-erbA) proliferated faster than parental EpH4 cells that contained low levels of endogenous TR. T(3) inhibited DNA synthesis and proliferation in EpH4 + TR alpha 1 cells but not EpH4 or EpH4 + v-erbA cells. The study of cell-cycle genes showed that T(3) decreased cyclin D1 RNA and protein levels in EpH4 + TR alpha 1 cells. In addition, T(3) downregulated the expression of T1, a gene that is overexpressed in human breast adenocarcinomas and is induced by mitogens, serum, and several oncogenes and cytokines. Inhibition of the T1 gene by T(3) required both de novo mRNA and protein synthesis. Furthermore, T(3) abolished the induction of T1 by the tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate and inhibited the activity of an activation protein 1-dependent promoter (-73-Col-CAT) in EpH4 + TR alpha 1 cells, suggesting that interference with activation protein 1 transcription factor plays a part in the inhibition of the T1 gene. Our results showed that T(3) reduced the proliferation of mammary epithelial cells and inhibited the expression of cyclin D1 and T1 genes.

## Abstract Cyclin D1 is a well‐known cell cycle regulator. Recently, its pro‐survival function has been revealed in several tumors. Because increasing expression of cyclin D1 is a common event in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and has been correlated with cisplatin resistance, we investigated

Homeobox-containing genes encode transcriptional regulators involved in cell fate and pattern formation during embryogenesis. Recently, it has become clear that their expression in continuously developing adult tissues, as well as in tumorigenesis, may be of equal importance. In the mouse mammary gl
