Calcitonin Deficiency in Primary Hypothyroidism*
The relative lack of sensitivity and specificity of current assays for plasma calcitonin (CT) have made it difficult to study possible CT deficiency conditions. Using a new extraction method that considerably improves the sensitivity of the assay for CT monomer, CT levels were measured before and after a short calcium (Ca) stimulation test (2 mg Ca/kg ...

Inherited Primary Hypothyroidism in Mice
A new autosomal recessive mutation that causes hypothyroidism has been identified in mice. The gene, herein named hypothyroid ( hyt ), has been mapped on chromosome 12 approximately 30 units from the centromere. The mutants are characterized by retarded growth, infertility, mild anemia, elevated serum cholesterol ...

Primary hypothyroidism and quality of life
In the 1970s, treatment with thyroid extract was superseded by levothyroxine, a synthetic L form of tetraiodothyronine. Since then, no major innovation has emerged for the treatment of hypothyroidism. The biochemical definition of subclinical hypothyroidism is a matter of debate.
