Abstract
BRAFV600E, the most common genetic alteration, has become a major therapeutic target in thyroid cancer. Vemurafenib (PLX4032), a specific inhibitor of BRAFV600E kinase, exhibits antitumor activity in patients with BRAFV600E-mutated thyroid cancer. However, the clinical benefit of PLX4032 is often limited by short-term response and acquired resistance via heterogeneous feedback mechanisms. Disulfiram (DSF), an alcohol-aversion drug, shows potent antitumor efficacy in a copper (Cu)-dependent way. However, its antitumor activity in thyroid cancer and its effect on cellular response to BRAF kinase inhibitors remain unclear. Antitumor effects of DSF/Cu on BRAFV600E-mutated thyroid cancer cells and its effect on the response of these cells to BRAF kinase inhibitor PLX4032 were systematically assessed by a series of in vitro and in vivo functional experiments. The molecular mechanism underlying the sensitizing effect of DSF/Cu on PLX4032 was explored by Western blot and flow cytometry assays. DSF/Cu exhibited stronger inhibitory effects on the proliferation and colony formation of BRAFV600E-mutated thyroid cancer cells than DSF treatment alone. Further studies revealed that DSF/Cu killed thyroid cancer cells by ROS-dependent suppression of MAPK/ERK and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways. Our data also showed that DSF/Cu strikingly increased the response of BRAFV600E-mutated thyroid cancer cells to PLX4032. Mechanistically, DSF/Cu sensitizes BRAF-mutant thyroid cancer cells to PLX4032 by inhibiting HER3 and AKT in an ROS-dependent way and subsequently relieving feedback activation of MAPK/ERK and PI3K/AKT pathways. This study not only implies potential clinical use of DSF/Cu in cancer therapy but also provides a new therapeutic strategy for BRAFV600E-mutated thyroid cancers.

Human exposure to bisphenol AF and diethylhexylphthalate increases susceptibility to develop differentiated thyroid cancer in patients with thyroid nodules. CHEMOSPHERE 2019; 218:885-894.

Abstract
Pollutants represent potential threats to the human health, being ubiquitous in the environment and exerting toxicity even at low doses. This study aims at investigating the role of fifteen multiclass organic pollutants, assumed as markers of environmental pollution, most of which exerting endocrine-disrupting activity, in thyroid cancer development. The increasing incidence of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) may be related to the rising production and environmental dissemination of pollutants. Fifty-five patients, twenty-seven with diagnosis of benign thyroid nodules and twenty-eight suffering from differentiated thyroid cancer, were enrolled and the concentration levels of seven bisphenols, two phthalates (i.e. di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and its main metabolite, mono-(2-ethyl-hexyl) phthalate) (MEHP)), two chlorobenzenes, (1,4-dichlorobenzene and 1,2,4,5-tetrachlorobenzene), and 3 phenol derivatives (2-chlorophenol, 4- nonylphenol, and triclosan) were determined in their serum by using a validated analytical method based on high performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet tandem fluorescence detection. A significant relationship was found between malignancy and the detection in the serum of both bisphenol AF and DEHP. Indeed, their presence confers a more than fourteen times higher risk of developing differentiated thyroid cancer. Relationship between these two pollutants and the risk of malignancy was dose-independent and not mediated by higher thyroid stimulating hormone levels. Even if a conclusive evidence cannot still be drawn and larger prospective studies are needed, the exposure to low doses of environmental endocrine-disrupting contaminants can be considered consistent with the development of thyroid cancer.

Abstract
Hyperthyroidism (HT) is characterized by an intense metabolic impact which affects the lipid, carbohydrate and amino acids metabolism, with increased resting energy expenditure and thermogenesis. Metabolomics is a new comprehensive technique that allows to capture an instant metabolic picture of an organism, reflecting peculiar molecular and pathophysiological states. The aim of the present prospective study was to identify a distinct metabolomic profile in HT patients using 1H NMR spectroscopy before and after antithyroid drug treatment. This prospective study included 15 patients (10 female, 5 male) who were newly diagnosed hyperthyroidism. A nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) based analysis was performed on plasma samples from the same patients at diagnosis (HypT0) and when they achieved euthyroidism (HypT1). The case groups were compared with a control group of 26 healthy volunteers (C). Multivariate statistical analysis was performed with Partial Least Squares-Discriminant Analysis (PLS-DA). PLS-DA identified a distinct metabolic profile between C and untreated hyperthyroid patients (R2X 0.638, R2Y 0.932, Q2 0.783). Interestingly, a significant difference was also found between C and euthyroid patients after treatment (R2X 0.510, R2Y 0.838, Q2 0.607), while similar cluster emerged comparing HypT0vs HypT1 patients. This study shows that metabolomic profile is deeply influenced by hyperthyroidism and this alteration persists after normalization of thyrotropin (TSH) and free thyroid hormone (FT3, FT4) concentration. This suggests that TSH, FT3 and FT4 assays may not be insufficient to detect long lasting peripheral effects of the thyroid hormones action. Further studies are needed to clarify whether and to what extent the evaluation of metabolomics profile may provide relevant information in the clinical management of hyperthyroidism.

Abstract
In thyrocytes, cell polarity is of crucial importance for proper thyroid function. Many intrinsic mechanisms of self-regulation control how the key players involved in thyroid hormone (TH) biosynthesis interact in apical microvilli, so that hazardous biochemical processes may occur without detriment to the cell. In some pathological conditions, this enzymatic complex is disrupted, with some components abnormally activated into the cytoplasm, which can lead to further morphological and functional breakdown. When iodine intake is altered, autoregulatory mechanisms outside the thyrocytes are activated. They involve adjacent capillaries that, together with thyrocytes, form the angiofollicular units (AFUs) that can be considered as the functional and morphological units of the thyroid. In response to iodine shortage, a rapid expansion of the microvasculature occurs, which, in addition to nutrients and oxygen, optimizes iodide supply. These changes are triggered by angiogenic signals released from thyrocytes via a reactive oxygen species/hypoxia-inducible factor/vascular endothelial growth factor pathway. When intra- and extrathyrocyte autoregulation fails, other forms of adaptation arise, such as euthyroid goiters. From onset, goiters are morphologically and functionally heterogeneous due to the polyclonal nature of the cells, with nodules distributed around areas of quiescent AFUs containing globules of compact thyroglobulin (Tg) and surrounded by a hypotrophic microvasculature. Upon TSH stimulation, quiescent AFUs are activated with Tg globules undergoing fragmentation into soluble Tg, proteins involved in TH biosynthesis being expressed and the local microvascular network extending. Over time and depending on physiological needs, AFUs may undergo repetitive phases of high, moderate, or low cell and tissue activity, which may ultimately culminate in multinodular goiters.

Abstract
Thyroperoxidase (TPO) is the enzyme involved in thyroid hormone synthesis. Although many studies have been carried out on TPO since it was first identified as being the thyroid microsomal antigen involved in autoimmune thyroid disease, previous authors have focused more on the immunological than on the biochemical aspects of TPO during the last few years. Here, we review the latest contributions in the field of TPO research and provide a large reference list of original publications. Given this promising background, scientists and clinicians will certainly continue in the future to investigate the mechanisms whereby TPO contributes to hormone synthesis and constitutes an important autoantigen involved in autoimmune thyroid disease, and the circumstances under which the normal physiological function of this enzyme takes on a pathological role.

Abstract
The indolocarbazole antitumor agent rebeccamycin is modified by chlorine atoms on each of two indole moieties of the aglycone scaffold. These halogens are incorporated during the initial step of its biosynthesis from conversion of L-Trp to 7-chlorotryptophan. Two genes in the biosynthetic cluster, rebF and rebH, are predicted to encode the flavin reductase and halogenase components of an FADH2-dependent halogenase, a class of enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of numerous halogenated natural products. Here, we report that, in the presence of O2, chloride ion, and L-Trp as cosubstrates, purified RebH displays robust regiospecific halogenating activity to generate 7-chlorotryptophan over at least 50 catalytic cycles. Halogenation by RebH required the addition of RebF, which catalyzes the NADH-dependent reduction of FAD to provide FADH2 for the halogenase. Maximal rates were achieved at a RebF/RebH ratio of 3:1. In air-saturated solutions, a k(cat) of 1.4 min(-1) was observed for the RebF/RebH system but increased at least 10-fold in low-pO2 conditions. RebH was also able to use bromide ions to generate monobrominated Trp. The demonstration of robust chlorinating activity by RebF/RebH sets up this system for the probing of mechanistic questions regarding this intriguing class of enzymes.

Abstract
The lactoperoxidase (LPO) catalysed oxidation of mitoxantrone, an anthraquinone type anti-cancer drug, was studied spectrophotometrically under turnover and single turnover conditions with a stopped flow apparatus. With Compound I and Compound II, mitoxantrone formed binding complexes that were deactivated with increasing substrate concentration. The productive second-order rate constants for reduction were 3.6 x 10(6) and 2.2 x 10(4) M(-1) s(-1) for Compound I and Compound II, respectively. Under turnover conditions, Compound II was the steady-state intermediate, but with increasing H2O2, Compound II reacted with H2O2 to form the catalytically inactive intermediate Compound III. Nitrite prevented formation of Compound III by reducing Compound II to the native state. It also modulated the pathway of mitoxantrone oxidation by increasing the level of oxidised metabolites such as MH2(2+) and the novel metabolite MH. The biological implication of drug activation by LPO with nitrite is discussed.

Abstract
The triphenylmethane dye, malachite green (MG), is used to treat and prevent fungal and parasitic infections in the aquaculture industry. It has been reported that the reduced metabolite of MG, leucomalachite green (LMG), accumulates in the tissues of fish treated with MG. MG is structurally related to other triphenylmethane dyes (e.g., gentian violet and pararosaniline) that are carcinogenic in the liver, thyroid, and other organs of experimental animals. The ability of LMG to inhibit thyroid peroxidase (TPO), the enzyme that catalyzes the iodination and coupling reactions required for thyroid hormone synthesis, was determined in this study. LMG inhibited TPO-catalyzed tyrosine iodination (half-maximal inhibition at ca. 10 microM). LMG also inhibited the TPO-catalyzed formation of thyroxine in low-iodine human goiter thyroglobulin (half-maximal inhibition at ca. 10 microM) using a model system that measures simultaneous iodination and coupling. Direct inhibition of the coupling reaction by LMG was shown using a coupling-only system containing chemically preiodinated thyroglobulin as the substrate. Incubation of LMG with TPO, iodide, and tyrosine in the presence of a H2O2-generating system yielded oxidation products that were identified by using on-line LC/APCI-MS as desmethyl LMG, 2desmethyl LMG, 3desmethyl LMG, MG, and MG N-oxide. Similar products from LMG were observed in incubations with TPO and H2O2 alone. These findings suggest that the anti-thyroid effects (increased serum thyroid-stimulating hormone and decreased serum thyroxine) observed in rats treated with LMG result from blockade of hormone synthesis through alternate substrate inhibition and that chronic exposure could cause thyroid follicular cell tumors through a hormonal mechanism. The observed TPO-catalyzed oxidative demethylation of LMG to a primary arylamine also suggests a genotoxic mechanism for tumor formation is possible.

Abstract
The site and characteristics of iodide binding to Arthromyces ramosus peroxidase were examined by x-ray crystallographic analysis, 1H and 127I NMR, and kinetic studies. X-ray analysis of an A. ramosus peroxidase crystal soaked in a KI solution at pH 5.5 showed that a single iodide ion is located at the entrance of the access channel to the distal side of the heme and lies between the two peptide segments, Phe90-Pro91-Ala92 and Ser151-Leu152-Ile153, 12.8 A from the heme iron. The distances between the iodide ion and heme peripheral methyl groups were all more than 10 A. The findings agree with the results obtained with 1H NMR in which the chemical shift and intensity of the methyl groups in the hyperfine shift region of A. ramosus peroxidase were hardly affected by the addition of iodide, unlike the case of horseradish peroxidase. Moreover, 127I NMR and steady-state kinetics showed that the binding of iodide depends on protonation of an amino acid residue with a pKa of about 5.3, which presumably is the distal histidine (His56), 7.8 A away from the iodide ion. The mechanism of electron transfer from the iodide ion to the heme iron is discussed on the basis of these findings.

Administration of minocycline (MN), a tetracycline antibiotic, produces a black pigment in the thyroids of humans and several species of experimental animals and antithyroid effects in rodents. We have previously shown that these effects appear to be related to interactions of MN with thyroid peroxidase (TPO), the key enzyme in thyroid hormone synthesis. In the present study, the mechanisms for inhibition of TPO-catalyzed iodination and coupling reactions by MN were investigated. MN was stable in the presence of TPO and H2O2, but adding iodide or a phenolic cosubstrate caused rapid conversion to several products. TPO-dependent product formation, characterized by on-line LC-APCI/MS and 1H-NMR, involved oxidative elimination to form the corresponding benzoquinone with subsequent dehydrogenation at the aliphatic 4-(dimethylamino) group. Addition of thiol-containing polymers (bovine serum albumin or thiol-agarose chromatographic beads) had a minimal effect on MN oxidation by TPO, but substantially reduced product formation and produced concomitant losses in free thiols. Covalent bonding through a thioether linkage of a reactive intermediate, the benzoquinone iminium ion, was inferred from these findings. Iodide- and phenolic cosubstrate-dependent oxidation of tetracycline to demethylated and dehydrogenated products was also observed, although at a slower rate than MN. The products and kinetics observed with MN were consistent with oxidation of MN by either the enzymatic iodinating species formed by reaction of TPO compound I with iodide or phenoxyl radicals/cations generated by TPO-mediated oxidation of a phenolic cosubstrate. The proposed reaction mechanism is consistent with alternate substrate inhibition of TPO-catalyzed iodination of tyrosyl residues in thyroglobulin (Tg) by MN, as previously reported. Furthermore, the observed phenoxyl radical-mediated oxidation of MN is consistent with its previously reported potent inhibition of the coupling of hormonogenic iodotyrosine residues in Tg in the reaction that forms thyroid hormones. The proposed reaction mechanism also implicates a reactive benzoquinone iminium ion intermediate that could be important in toxicity of MN.

Abstract
1. Thyroid peroxidase (TPO) catalyses the iodination and phenolic coupling reactions in the biosynthesis of thyroid hormones. 2. The two-electron oxidation of TPO by H2O2 produces an oxoferryl porphyrin pi-cation radical compound I that isomerizes spontaneously to a form of compound I that contains an oxoferryl haem and the second oxidizing equivalent as an amino acid radical. 3. The pi-cation radical compound I is the catalytic species that effects iodide ion oxidation and the protein radical compound I is most likely the catalytic species that catalyses coupling. 4. Methimazole, a therapeutic, anti-hyperthyroid drug, is a suicide substrate for TPO and effects irreversible inactivation by TPO-mediated S-oxygenation to a reactive sulphenic acid that binds covalently to the prosthetic haem. 5. Sulphamethazine and other arylamines containing electron-withdrawing substituents inhibit TPO compound I-mediated reactions by reversible, mixed-type inhibition. 6. Ethylenethiourea, a fungicide metabolite, blocks TPO-mediated iodination by reacting with the catalytic iodinating species as an alternate substrate. 7. Resorcinol and related dietary flavonoids are suicide substrates for TPO and act by covalent binding to amino acid residues, presumably those radical sites present in the compound I isomer. 8. Nitrosobenzene, a known radical-trapping agent, blocks TPO-mediated coupling but not iodination or phenolic oxidations presumably by interception of the 3,5-diiodotyrosyl radical species generated during the coupling reaction.

Abstract
1. Human thyroid peroxidase (TPO) was isolated from 280-640 g of pooled thyroid tissue resected from patients with Graves' disease. 2. Isolation was performed by an improved and simplified method. 3. The Reinheit Zahl (A412/A280) of the final preparations was in the range of 0.16-0.32. 4. The spectroscopic and enzymatic properties of Graves' TPO were compared with those of porcine TPO and bovine LPO, revealing closer resemblance to the former. 5. Graves' TPO may provide a useful substitute for normal TPO, which is very difficult to isolate.

Abstract
A pivotal biochemical event in the thyroid physiology is identified unravelling a superoxide anion radical-mediated activation of iodine into an active I.- form, which could be the intermediate that is incorporated onto tyrosine. This active iodine species gives fairly stable spin-adducts with PBN that could be characterized using EPR spectroscopy. Thus, a long-lasting puzzle regarding the iodine intermediate formed before iodination of tyrosine seems to be solved.

Abstract
The binding of thiocyanate to lactoperoxidase (LPO) has been investigated by 1H and 15N NMR spectroscopy. 1H NMR of LPO shows that the major broad heme methyl proton resonance at about 61 ppm is shifted upfield by addition of the thiocyanate, indicating binding of the thiocyanate to the enzyme. The pH dependence of line width of 15N resonance of SC15N- in the presence of the enzyme has revealed that the binding of the thiocyanate to the enzyme is facilitated by protonation of an ionizable group (with pKa of 6.4), which is presumably distal histidine. Dissociation constants (KD) of SC15N-/LPO, SC15N-/LPO/I-, and SC15N-/LPO/CN- equilibria have been determined by 15N T1 measurements and found to be 90 +/- 5, 173 +/- 20, and 83 +/- 6 mM, respectively. On the basis of these values of KD, it is suggested that the iodide ion inhibits the binding of the thiocyanate but cyanide ion does not. The thiocyanate is shown to bind at the same site of LPO as iodide does, but the binding is considerably weaker and is away from the ferric ion. The distance of 15N of the bound thiocyanate ion from the iron is determined to be 7.2 +/- 0.2 A from the 15N T1 measurements.

Abstract
Thyroid peroxidase and lactoperoxidase are capable of producing oxidized bromine species. Thus investigations into bromination reactions with tyrosine and thyroglobulin were undertaken in order to gain insight into possible formation of brominated thyroid hormone analogues. A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the separation of bromine/iodine-substituted tyrosines and used as a basis for these investigations combined with ultraviolet absorption and electrochemical detection. The results indicate that in vivo bromination of tyrosyl residues in thyroglobulin might be of some importance in cases of either iodine deficiency or excessive bromide intake.

Abstract
Spectral scans in both the visible (650-450 nm) and the Soret (450-380 nm) regions were recorded for the native enzyme, Compound II, and Compound III of lactoperoxidase and thyroid peroxidase. Compound II for each enzyme (1.7 microM) was prepared by adding a slight excess of H2O2 (6 microM), whereas Compound III was prepared by adding a large excess of H2O2 (200 microM). After these compounds had been formed it was observed that they were slowly reconverted to the native enzyme in the absence of exogenous donors. The pathway of Compound III back to the native enzyme involved Compound II as an intermediate. Reconversion of Compound III to native enzyme was accompanied by the disappearance of H2O2 and generation of O2, with approximately 1 mol of O2 formed for each 2 mol of H2O2 that disappeared. A scheme is proposed to explain these observations, involving intermediate formation of the ferrous enzyme. According to the scheme, Compound III participates in a reaction cycle that effectively converts H2O2 to O2. Iodide markedly affected the interconversions between native enzyme, Compound II, and Compound III for lactoperoxidase and thyroid peroxidase. A low concentration of iodide (4 microM) completely blocked the formation of Compound II when lactoperoxidase or thyroid peroxidase was treated with 6 microM H2O2. When the enzymes were treated with 200 microM H2O2, the same low concentration of iodide completely blocked the formation of Compound III and largely prevented the enzyme degradation that otherwise occurred in the absence of iodide. These effects of iodide are readily explained by (i) the two-electron oxidation of iodide to hypoiodite by Compound I, which bypasses Compound II as an intermediate, and (ii) the rapid oxidation of H2O2 to O2 by the hypoiodite formed in the reaction between Compound I and iodide.

Abstract
Human myeloperoxidase and human thyroid peroxidase nucleotide and amino acid sequences were compared. The global similarities of the nucleotide and amino acid sequences are 46% and 44%, respectively. These similarities are most evident within the coding sequence, especially that encoding the myeloperoxidase functional subunits. These results clearly indicate that myeloperoxidase and thyroid peroxidase are members of the same gene family and diverged from a common ancestral gene. The residues at 416 in myeloperoxidase and 407 in thyroid peroxidase were estimated as possible candidates for the proximal histidine residues that link to the iron centers of the enzymes. The primary structures around these histidine residues were compared with those of other known peroxidases. The similarity in this region between the two animal peroxidases (amino acid 396-418 in thyroid peroxidase and 405-427 in myeloperoxidase) is 74%; however, those between the animal peroxidases and other yeast and plant peroxidases are not significantly high, although several conserved features have been observed. The possible location of the distal histidine residues in myeloperoxidase and thyroid peroxidase amino acid sequences are also discussed.

Abstract
In order to resolve the confusion about the spectral properties of myeloperoxidase Compound II and Compound III (myeloperoxidase is donor:hydrogen-peroxide oxidoreductase, EC 1.11.1.7), the absorbance spectra in the visible and ultraviolet regions were measured under conditions where either Compound II or Compound III was present. Peak positions, isosbestic points and absorption coefficients are presented. We conclude that in most studies on Compound II or Compound III, mixtures of these compounds had been present. Our data indicate that the relative contributions of Compound II and Compound III in a sample can be determined from the absorbance ratio A625nm/A456nm. The optical absorbance spectrum of myeloperoxidase compound III was not affected by pH (pH 3-8). The absorbance spectrum of Compound II, however, was dependent on pH. The absorbance spectrum of Compound II at high pH is described.

Abstract
Interaction of an iodide ion with lactoperoxidase was studied by the use of 1H NMR, 127I NMR, and optical difference spectrum techniques. 1H NMR spectra demonstrated that a major broad hyperfine-shifted signal at about 60 ppm, which is ascribed to the heme peripheral methyl protons, was shifted toward high field by adding KI, indicating the binding of iodide to the active site of the enzyme; the dissociation constant was estimated to be 38 mM at pH 6.1. The binding was further detected by 127I NMR, showing no competition with cyanide. Both 1H NMR and 127I NMR revealed that the binding of iodide to the enzyme is facilitated by the protonation of an ionizable group with a pKa value of 6.0-6.8, which is presumably the distal histidyl residue. Optical difference spectra showed that the binding of an aromatic donor molecule to the enzyme is slightly but distinctly affected by adding KI. On the basis of these results, it was suggested that an iodide ion binds to lactoperoxidase outside the heme crevice but at the position close enough to interact with the distal histidyl residue which possibly mediates electron transport in the iodide oxidation reaction.

Abstract
In the course of lactoperoxidase-catalysed I- oxidation, which is a model for the initial step of thyroid hormone biosynthesis, irreversible enzyme inactivation can occur if free molecular iodine (I2) or other oxidized iodine species accumulate. Evidence is presented that the breakdown of the catalytic activity is the result of the iodination of the peroxidase-apoprotein. This kind of enzyme inactivation, which can be prevented by iodine acceptors' such as thyroglobulin or high concentrations of I-, may well play a role in the regulation of the synthesis of thyroid hormones in vivo.

Abstract
In the presence of iodide (I-, 10 mM) and hydrogen peroxide in a large excess (H2O2, 0.1-10 mM) catalytic amounts of lactoperoxidase (2 nM) are very rapidly irreversibly inactivated without forming compound III (cpd III). In contrast, in the absence of I- cpd III is formed and inactivation proceeds very slowly. Increasing the enzyme concentration up to the micromolar range significantly accelerates the rate of inactivation. The present data reveal that irreversible inactivation of the enzyme involves cleavage of the prosthetic group and liberation of heme iron. The rate of enzyme destruction is well correlated with the production of molecular oxygen (O2), which originates from the oxidation of excess H2O2. Since H2O2 and O2 per se do not affect the heme moiety of the peroxidase, we suggest that the damaging species may be a primary intermediate of the H2O2 oxidation, such as oxygen in its excited singlet state (1 delta gO2), superoxide radicals (O-.2), or consequently formed hydroxyl radicals (OH.).

Abstract
Thyroglobulin iodination and thyroxine synthesis in vitro require the presence of peroxidase, H2O2 and iodide. H2O2 is usually continuously generated by glucose oxidase (GO) and glucose. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the two enzymes could possibly be inactivated by a particular concentration of H2O2 or iodide present during incubation. The results revealed that both enzymes were indeed inactivated under two distinct conditions: Lactoperoxidase and thyroid peroxidase were inactivated by modest concentrations of H2O2 accumulating during incubation. Glucose oxidase was inactivated by an oxidized species of iodine or singlet oxygen produced in the catalytic cycle. The results may explain some hitherto unsolved discrepancies between different iodination procedures. Moreover they may have an impact on the regulation of in vivo thyroglobulin iodination and hormone synthesis.

Abstract
Hog thyroid peroxidase (TPO) was highly purified in order to study the spectral properties and catalytic specificities of its H2O2 compounds in iodothyronine biosynthesis. Purified TPO exhibited a Soret spectrum with an absorption maximum at 410 nm and had an A410/A280 value of 0.55. Protein iodination was only catalyzed under conditions which allowed formation of the transient TPO compound I (Fe(IV)-pi o+). On addition of an equimolar amount of H2O2, TPO formed a stable compound with an absorption maximum at 417 nm. This compound efficiently catalyzed the coupling reaction, but was unable to iodinate proteins. It catalyzed the formation of 1 mol iodothyronines/mol TPO, and therefore retained two oxidizing equivalents per molecule. It is proposed that this compound constitutes a second form of compound I whose structure might be Fe(IV)-Ro, analogous to that of cytochrome c peroxidase compound I. In the presence of an excess of H2O2, it formed TPO-compound III with an absorption maximum at 420 nm. TPO-compound III catalyzed neither the iodination nor the coupling reaction.

Abstract
A catalytic intermediate, Compound II of peroxidase was detected spectrophotometrically in thyroid microsomes. From comparison with the spectral data on purified thyroid peroxidase, the content of the peroxidase was estimated to be 0.019 nmol per mg of the microsomal protein, being about one-eighth of the amount of cytochrome b5. It was concluded that thyroid peroxidase exhibits the same peroxidase activity for guaiacol or ascorbate in the free and the microsome-bound forms.

Abstract
The high-speed supernatant from homogenates of rat small intestine contains a heat-stable, dialyzable factor which showed a time-dependent inhibition of peroxidase activity in salt extracts of the tissue. The inhibitor was purified by chromatography on Dowex 50W-X8 and identified as xanthine. The inhibition of peroxidase by xanthine was prevented by allopurinol, an inhibitor of xanthine oxidase, and hypoxanthine was also found to be inhibitory. H2O2, produced in the reaction catalyzed by xanthine oxidase, was shown to be directly responsible for the observed inhibition. The time-dependent loss of peroxidase activity in the presence of xanthine or hypoxanthine occurred more rapidly in NH4Cl than in CaCl2 extracts of small intestine and was due to the difference in the initial concentration of H2O2 in these two extracts. The possible relationship between peroxidase and xanthine oxidase in the rat small intestine is discussed.

Abstract
Non-enzymatic (I2-mediated) and lactoperoxidase-catalyzed iodination of tyrosine are inhibited by excess iodide (I-) and/or hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). This phenomenon is a consequence of the concentration-dependent dual role of I- and H2O2 in the iodinating system. I- and H2O2, in addition to their function as primary substrates of peroxidase, may act as alternative 'iodine acceptors' and therefore compete with tyrosine for the active iodinating agent, irrespective of whether this compound is an enzyme-associated iodinium cation (E X I delta +) or an equivalent oxidized iodine species (IOH, IC1, I2). The competitive reaction pathways resulting from excess I- and/or H2O2 in the iodination system are I2/I-3 generation and/or pseudo-catalatic degradation of H2O2, respectively. Our results also demonstrate that I2 (and alternative medium-dependent oxidized iodine species such as IOH and IC1) generated in the iodination system may play an important role as iodinating agent(s). They serve as a substitute for the enzyme-bound iodinium species (E X I delta +), if the prevailing I- concentration favours this pathway. The proposed mechanism of the various antagonistic and interactive reaction pathways is summarized in a scheme.

Abstract
Cytochrome c peroxidase (CcP) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP), when combined with a stoichiometric amount of H2O2, form stable compounds I which are known as FeIV Ro and FeIV o pi + structures, respectively. These compounds were assayed in the catalysis of thyroid hormone synthesis and the iodination reaction. As previously shown for the lactoperoxidase FeIV Ro compound, the CcP FeIV Ro compound was involved in the coupling and not in the iodination reactions. In contrast, the HRP FeIV o pi + compound catalyzed both iodination and hormone formation. The possible role of the different peroxidase-H2O2 compounds in the two sequential reactions, thyroglobulin iodination and thyroid hormone formation, is discussed.

Abstract
Thyroid peroxidase (TPO) and lactoperoxidase (LPO) display significant catalatic activity at pH 7.0 in the presence of low concentrations of iodide, based both on measurements of H2O2 disappearance and O2 evolution. In the absence of iodide only minor catalatic activity was detected. The stimulatory effect of iodide could not be explained by protection of the enzymes against inactivation by H2O2. A mechanism is suggested involving an enzyme-hypoiodite complex as an intermediate.

Abstract
We have investigated the mechanism by which the thioureylene drugs, 1-methyl-2-mercaptoimidazole (MMI) and 6-n-propylthiouracil (PTU), inactivate thyroid peroxidase (TPO). Our results indicate that inactivation of TPO by MMI and PTU involves a reaction between the drugs and the oxidized heme group produced by interaction between TPO and H2O2. This conclusion is supported by the following observations. First, addition of a low concentration of H2O2 to a solution of TPO shifted lambda max of the Soret band from 411 to 420 nm, reflecting the formation of an oxidized form of TPO (TPOox). Addition of MMI or PTU to TPOox produced a Soret spectrum that was significantly different from the spectrum of native TPO or TPOox, whereas addition of MMI or PTU to native TPO produced no significant change in the heme spectrum. Second, studies with radiolabeled MMI and PTU combined with simultaneous assays of enzyme activity (guaiacol assay) showed that firm binding of the drugs to TPO and inactivation of the enzyme occurred on addition of the drugs to TPOox. However, neither binding nor inactivation occurred on addition of the drugs to native TPO. Third, the presence of a low concentration of iodide prevented the shift in the Soret spectrum, the binding of labeled drug, and the loss of enzyme activity associated with the addition of thioureylene drugs to TPO + H2O2. Under these conditions we assume that the enzyme was present as TPO X Iox, a form in which the heme is present in the same reduced state as in native TPO. This would explain the protective action of iodide on the inactivation of TPOox by MMI and PTU.
