Functional Divergence of Glycoprotein Hormone Receptors [PDF]
, 2010 Two lamprey glycroprotein hormone receptors (lGpH-R I and II) highly similar with gnathostome GpH-Rs were cloned from sea lamprey testes and thyroid, respectively.

Thyroid hormone function in the rat testis
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2014 Thyroid hormones are emerging regulators of testicular function since Sertoli, germ and Leydig cells are found to express thyroid hormone receptors. These testicular cells also express deiodinases which are capable of converting the pro-hormone T4 to the

Primary hypothyroidism with exuberant dermatological manifestations, [PDF]
Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia, 2020 Thyroid hormone has effects on the skin. Patients with hypothyroidism have changes such as dry, scaly and rough skin. Increase carotene in the dermis becomes a yellowish tone to the skin of the patient with hypothyroidism.

Retardation of cochlear maturation and impaired hair cell function caused by deletion of all known thyroid hormone receptors [PDF]
, 2001 The deafness caused by early onset hypothyroidism indicates that thyroid hormone is essential for the development of hearing. We investigated the underlying roles of the TRa1 and TRß thyroid hormone receptors in the auditory system using receptor ...

Role of maternal thyroid hormones in the developing neocortex and during human evolution
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2013 The importance of thyroid hormones during brain development has been appreciated for many decades. In humans, low levels of circulating maternal thyroid hormones, e.g.

Thyroid hormone receptors and resistance to thyroid hormone disorders [PDF]
Nature Reviews Endocrinology, 2014 Thyroid hormone action is predominantly mediated by thyroid hormone receptors (THRs), which are encoded by the thyroid hormone receptor α (THRA) and thyroid hormone receptor β (THRB) genes. Patients with mutations in THRB present with resistance to thyroid hormone β (RTHβ), which is a disorder characterized by elevated levels of thyroid hormone, normal

Effect of hyperthyroidism on circulating prolactin and hypothalamic expression of tyrosine hydroxylase, prolactin signaling cascade members and estrogen and progesterone receptors during late pregnancy and lactation in the rat [PDF]
, 2017 Hyperthyroidism (HyperT) compromises pregnancy and lactation, hindering suckling-induced PRL release. We studied the effect of HyperT on hypothalamic mRNA (RT-qPCR) and protein (Western blot) expression of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), PRL receptor (PRLR ...

Ghrelin-mediated inhibition of the TSH-stimulated function of differentiated human thyrocytes ex vivo. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Ghrelin is a peptide hormone produced mainly in the gastrointestinal tract known to regulate several physiological functions including gut motility, adipose tissue accumulation and hunger sensation leading to increased bodyweight.
