http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/9299474http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Several hormones not only regulate the activity of endocrine cells and non-endocrine tissues but also serve as neuronal transmitters or modulators of neuronal activity. Accordingly, the expression and physiological significance of hormonal receptors in the central nervous system (CNS) could be demonstrated for a whole set of hormones (e.g. hCG/LH, GH, T3, CRF, TRH). The G-protein coupled TSH receptor is densely expressed in the thyroid gland and mediates the production and secretion of thyroid hormones. Not all TSH effects, especially in neurological and psychiatric disease states, can readily be explained by the action of the hormone on the thyroid gland and/or TRH levels. Therefore, it has been suggested that TSH might exert its effects directly in the CNS, although no direct proof for a TSH receptor in the human brain has been provided yet. Here we describe the cloning of a TSH receptor from an ovine hypothalamic cDNA library that is similar to thyroid derived cDNA clones. The comparison of amino acid sequences indicates that several protein domains important for the function and activity of the receptor are highly conserved. RT-PCR and RNA protection assay demonstrated that the TSH receptor mRNA is widely expressed throughout the ovine brain. The expression of a TSH receptor in the CNS indicates that TSH is not only a hormonal messenger for the thyroid gland but can also act directly in the brain. Further studies should focus on the physiological role of TSH in the CNS and the regulation of TSH receptor expression in the mammalian brain."xsd:string
