Cardiac myocytes express the two thyroid hormone receptors (T3Rs), T3R{alpha} and T3Rß. However, which isoform contributes to specific, T3-induced alterations of cardiac function remains unclear. Here, we used individual T3R isoform knockout (KO) mice to study the effects of T3R{alpha} and T3Rß in the heart. Our findings indicate that potassium channel genes that code for K+ channels involved in action potential repolarization, like KV 4.2 and minK, are T3R{alpha} targets. Both are markedly regulated by thyroid status. The recently identified cyclic nucleotide-gated channels, HCN2 and HCN4, are targets of T3R{alpha} and are unchanged in a euthyroid T3Rß KO. However, these transcripts respond markedly to altered T3 signaling concomitant with bradycardia in T3R{alpha} KO and hypothyroid animals, as well as tachycardia in hyperthyroid T3Rß KO mice. SERCA2a and myosins are T3 regulated and were also targets of T3R{alpha}, and the papillary muscles of {alpha}KO animals showed a slowed rate of force development. Because of the absence of significant cardiac effects in euthyroid T3Rß KO mice, we determined messenger RNA levels for both T3R{alpha} and T3 in the heart. We found that T3Rß is present at a 1:3 ratio to T3R{alpha}1. We conclude that the cardiac phenotype regulated by T3 is predominantly mediated by T3R{alpha} and that the lack of T3R{alpha} cannot be compensated by T3Rß in the heart.
