Mice devoid of all TRs are viable, whereas Pax8-/- mice, which lack the follicular cells producing T4 and T3 in the thyroid gland, die during the first weeks of postnatal life. A precise comparison between the two types of mutants reveals that their phenotypes are similar, but the defects in spleen, bone, and small intestine are more pronounced in Pax8-/- mice. This is interpreted as the result of a negative effect of the unliganded TR on thyroid hormone target genes expression in the Pax8-/- mutants. Pax8/TR{alpha} compound mutants can survive to adulthood, and the expression of target genes is partially restored. This demonstrates the importance of TR{alpha} aporeceptor activity in several aspects of postnatal development.
