A minimal human physiologically based kinetic model of thyroid hormones and chemical disruption of plasma thyroid hormone binding proteins [PDF]
The thyroid hormones (THs), thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), are under homeostatic control by the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis and plasma TH binding proteins (THBPs), including thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG), transthyretin (TTR), and ...

µ-Crystallin: A thyroid hormone binding protein [PDF]
µ-Crystallin is a NADPH-regulated thyroid hormone binding protein encoded by the CRYM gene in humans. It is primarily expressed in the brain, muscle, prostate, and kidney, where it binds thyroid hormones, which regulate metabolism and thermogenesis.

Studies on the Hormone-Binding Function of Thyroid Hormone-Binding Proteins by Heat Treatment
Thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG), a major thyroid hormone-binding protein, is denatured by heat and subsequently loses its binding activity. This study aimed to investigate changes in the function of thyroid hormone-binding proteins utilizing a method of heat treatment.

The free hormone hypothesis postulates that only the nonbound fraction (the free fraction) of hormones that otherwise circulate in blood bound to their carrier proteins is able to enter cells and exert biologic effects.

Sterol regulatory element-binding proteins are regulators of the rat thyroid peroxidase gene in thyroid cells. [PDF]
Sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBPs)-1c and -2, which were initially discovered as master transcriptional regulators of lipid biosynthesis and uptake, were recently identified as novel transcriptional regulators of the sodium-iodide ...

T3 levels and thyroid hormone signaling
The clinical availability of tissue-specific biomarkers of thyroid hormone (TH) action constitutes a “holy grail” for the field. Scientists have investigated several TH-dependent markers, including the tissue content of triiodothyronine (T3)—the active ...

Laboratory Assessment of Thyroid Function in Patients with Proteinuria [PDF]
Significant losses of functional proteins such as hormones and hormone-binding proteins are seen in patients suffering from proteinuria. Studies have reported loss of thyroid hormones and thyroxine-binding globulin in the urine.

Placental transfer of a hydroxylated polychlorinated biphenyl and effects on fetal and maternal thyroid hormone homeostasis in the rat [PDF]
Earlier studies at our laboratory indicated that several hydroxylated polychlorinated biphenyls (OH-PCBs) detected in human blood could specifically inhibit thyroxine (T4) transport by competitive binding to the thyroid hormone transport protein ...

Evolution of the Thyroid Hormone-Binding Protein, Transthyretin [PDF]
Transthyretin (TTR) belongs to a group of proteins, which includes thyroxine-binding globulin and albumin, that bind to and transport thyroid hormones in the blood. TTR is also indirectly implicated in the carriage of vitamin A through the mediation of retinol-binding protein (RBP). It was first identified in 1942 in human serum and cerebrospinal fluid
