Functional characteristics of a variant thyrotropin receptor. [PDF]
A claim has been made that a variant of the human thyrotropin receptor in which Pro52 is replaced by Thr ([Thr52]thyrotropin receptor) is associated with autoimmune thyroid diseases and displays increased responsiveness to thyrotropin.

Molecular Insights into the Transmembrane Domain of the Thyrotropin Receptor. [PDF]
The thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that is member of the leucine-rich repeat subfamily (LGR). In the absence of crystal structure, the success of rational design of ligands targeting the receptor internal cavity ...

Molecular cloning of the thyrotropin receptor.
The pituitary hormone thyrotropin, or thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), is the main physiological agent that regulates the thyroid gland. The thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) was cloned by selective amplification with the polymerase chain reaction of DNA ...

Thyrotropin-releasing hormone receptors in GtoPdb v.2023.1 [PDF]
Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) receptors (provisional nomenclature as recommended by NC-IUPHAR [14]) are activated by the endogenous tripeptide TRH (pGlu-His-ProNH2). TRH and TRH analogues fail to distinguish TRH1 and TRH2 receptors [29].

Autoantibody mimicry of hormone action at the thyrotropin receptor [PDF]
Thyroid hormones are vital in metabolism, growth and development(1). Thyroid hormone synthesis is controlled by thyrotropin (TSH), which acts at the thyrotropin receptor (TSHR)(2).

Interaction of autoantibodies to thyrotropin receptor with a hydrophilic subunit of the thyrotropin receptor [PDF]
Reduction of human thyroid membranes with dithiothreitol caused the release of a water-soluble glycoprotein which neutralized the thyrotropin (TSH) receptor-binding and thyroid-stimulating activities of Graves‘ serum. Analysis of the protein by gel filtration and sucrose density gradient centrifugation allowed estimates of 3.45 nm for the Stokes ...

Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) promotes wound re-epithelialisation in frog and human skin [PDF]
There remains a critical need for new therapeutics that promote wound healing in patients suffering from chronic skin wounds. This is, in part, due to a shortage of simple, physiologically and clinically relevant test systems for investigating candidate ...

Distinct and histone-specific modifications mediate positive versus negative transcriptional regulation of TSHalpha promoter. [PDF]
Hormonally-regulated histone modifications that govern positive versus negative transcription of target genes are poorly characterized despite their importance for normal and pathological endocrine function.

Gene (rs179247) Polymorphism and Susceptibility to Autoimmune Thyroid Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis [PDF]
Background Both Graves’ disease (GD) and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) are classified as autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITDs). It has been hypothesized that changes in the thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) gene may contribute to the development ...

Thyrotropin-releasing hormone receptors (version 2019.4) in the IUPHAR/BPS Guide to Pharmacology Database [PDF]
Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) receptors (provisional nomenclature as recommended by NC-IUPHAR [13]) are activated by the endogenous tripeptide TRH (pGlu-His-ProNH2). TRH and TRH analogues fail to distinguish TRH1 and TRH2 receptors [28].
