Thyroid hormone regulation of gene expression in primary cerebrocortical cells: role of thyroid hormone receptor subtypes and interactions with retinoic acid and glucocorticoids. [PDF]
The effects of thyroid hormone on brain development and function are largely mediated by the binding of 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3) to its nuclear receptors (TR) to regulate positively or negatively gene expression.

Selenium, Iodine and Iron–Essential Trace Elements for Thyroid Hormone Synthesis and Metabolism
The adequate availability and metabolism of three essential trace elements, iodine, selenium and iron, provide the basic requirements for the function and action of the thyroid hormone system in humans, vertebrate animals and their evolutionary ...

Thyroid Hormone Resistance in a Preterm Infant with a Novel THRB Mutation [PDF]
Resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) is a condition caused by a mutation in the thyroid hormone receptor gene. It is rarely reported in individuals with no family history of RTH or in premature infants, and its clinical presentation varies. In our case, a

Thyroid disruption by Di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) and mono-n-butyl phthalate (MBP) in Xenopus laevis. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP), a chemical widely used in many consumer products, is estrogenic and capable of producing seriously reproductive and developmental effects in laboratory animals.

Central hyperthyroidism combined with Graves' disease: case series and review of the literature
Background: Central hyperthyroidism is characterized by elevated free thyroid hormone and unsuppressed thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), and this laboratory feature includes TSH-secreting pituitary adenoma (TSHoma) and resistance to thyroid hormone β ...

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 ...

Resistance to thyroid hormone due to a novel mutation of thyroid hormone receptor beta gene [PDF]
Resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) is a rare inherited syndrome characterized by diminished response of the target tissue to thyroid hormone caused, in the majority of cases, by mutation of the thyroid hormone receptor beta (THRβ) gene. Despite elevated
