Main Factors Involved in Thyroid Hormone Action
The thyroid hormone receptors are the mediators of a multitude of actions by the thyroid hormones in cells. Most thyroid hormone activities require interaction with nuclear receptors to bind DNA and regulate the expression of target genes. In addition to

The Isoforms of Estrogen Receptor Alpha and Beta in Thyroid Cancer
The incidence of thyroid cancer was predominant in women, indicating that the sex hormone may have a role in thyroid cancer development. Generally, the sex hormone exerts its function by binding to the correspondent nuclear receptors. Therefore, aberrant

Hormone Selectivity in Thyroid Hormone Receptors [PDF]
Separate genes encode thyroid hormone receptor subtypes TRalpha (NR1A1) and TRbeta (NR1A2). Products from each of these contribute to hormone action, but the subtypes differ in tissue distribution and physiological response. Compounds that discriminate between these subtypes in vivo may be useful in treating important medical problems such as obesity ...

Impaired hair growth and wound healing in mice lacking thyroid hormone receptors. [PDF]
Both clinical and experimental observations show that the skin is affected by the thyroidal status. In hypothyroid patients the epidermis is thin and alopecia is common, indicating that thyroidal status might influence not only skin proliferation but ...

Reduced pituitary size in subjects with mutations in the THRB gene and thyroid hormone resistance
Background: Thyroid hormone action is mediated by two forms of thyroid hormone receptors (α, β) with differential tissue distribution. Thyroid hormone recepto r β (TRβ) mutations lead to resistance to thyroid hormone action in tissues predominantly ...

Thyroid hormone and thyroid hormone nuclear receptors: History and present state of art
The present review traces the road leading to discovery of L-thyroxine, thyroid hormone (3,5,3´-triiodo-L-thyronine, T3) and its cognate nuclear receptors.

Independent Skeletal Actions of Pituitary Hormones [PDF]
Over the past years, pituitary hormones and their receptors have been shown to have non-traditional actions that allow them to bypass the hypothalamus-pituitary-effector glands axis.
