Abstract in Portuguese
Sabe-se que a ativação do Sistema Nervoso Simpático (SNS) induz osteopenia via adrenoceptores b2 (b2-AR). Para investigar se o hormônio tireoideano (HT) interage com o SNS para regular a massa óssea, estudamos o efeito do HT em associação com isoproterenol ou propranolol (agonista e antagonista b-adrenérgicos) e avaliamos o efeito do HT em camundongos com elevado tônus simpático, devido à dupla inativação gênica do a2A-AR e a2C-AR (a2A/a2C-AR-/-), autorreceptores que inibem a liberação de noradrenalina. Vimos que esses animais apresentam um fenótipo de alta massa óssea, apesar do elevado tônus simpático e de intacta sinalização b2-adrenérgica, sugerindo que o a2A-AR e/ou a2C-AR, além do b2-AR, possam mediar ações do SNS no osso. O propranolol limitou e o isoproterenol acentuou os efeitos deletérios do HT no esqueleto, já os animais a2A/a2C-AR-/- apresentaram resistência à osteopenia induzida pela tireotoxicose, o que sugere que há interação entre SNS e o HT para regular a massa óssea, e que esta depende tanto do b2-AR como do a2A- e/ou a2C-AR.

Abstract in English
It is known that the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activation induces ostepenia, via b2-adrenoceptors (b2AR). To investigate if thyroid hormone (TH) interacts with the SNS to regulate bone mass, we studied the effect of TH in association with isoproterenol or propranolol (b-adrenergic agonist and antagonist) and evaluated the effect of TH in mice with a chronic elevated sympathetic tone, due to double disruption of a2A-AR and a2C-AR (a2a/a2c-AR-/-), autoreceptors that inhibit noradrenalin release. We showed that KO mice present a high bone mass phenotype in spite of an elevated sympathetic tone and of intact b2-adrenergic signaling, which suggests that a2A- and/or a2C-AR, besides b2-AR, may also mediate the SNS actions in the bone. Propranolol limited and isoproterenol accentuated the deleterious effects of TH in the skeleton, while a2A/a2C-AR-/- mice presented resistance to the T3-induced osteopenia, which suggest that there is an interaction between the SNS and TH to regulate bone mass, and that it is dependent on b2-AR and a2A-AR and/or a2C-AR signaling.
