The structural consequences of two hTRbeta mutants, residing in the flexible N-terminal portion of the ligand binding domain (LBD), were investigated. These mutants exhibit modestly reduced hormone binding with impaired release of corepressor. | Thyroid hormone receptor-beta mutations conferring hormone resistance and reduced corepressor release exhibit decreased stability in the N-terminal ligand-binding domain.

Increased TR expression in the hypertrophied heart is associated with an improvement in contractile function and increased SERCA expression. | Adeno-associated virus-mediated expression of thyroid hormone receptor isoforms-alpha1 and -beta1 improves contractile function in pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy.
