Poisoning with Thyroid Hormones Used Illegally—Systematic Review [PDF]
Background/Objectives: Thyroid hormones, considered safe in therapeutic doses, are used to treat hypothyroidism, a common condition. Due to a combination of factors, including their mechanism of action, availability, and low price, these drugs are used ...

Can increased prenatal exposure to thyroid hormones alter physiology and behaviour in the long-term? Insights from an experimental study in Japanese quails [PDF]
Maternal thyroid hormones (triiodothyronine T3 and thyroxine T4) are important regulators of embryonic development and gene expression. In chickens, prenatal thyroid hormone treatment has been shown to influence embryonic gene expression and postnatal ...

Thyroid Hormone Transporters [PDF]
Thyroid hormone is essential for the development of the brain and the nervous system. Cellular entry is required for conversion of thyroid hormones by the intracellular deiodinases and for binding of T(3) to its nuclear receptors. Several transporters capable of thyroid hormone transport have been identified. Functional expression studies using Xenopus

Neurovascular unit disruption and blood–brain barrier leakage in MCT8 deficiency
Background The monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8) plays a vital role in maintaining brain thyroid hormone homeostasis. This transmembrane transporter is expressed at the brain barriers, as the blood–brain barrier (BBB), and in neural cells, being the ...

Thyroid Hormone Transporters [PDF]
AbstractThyroid hormone transporters at the plasma membrane govern intracellular bioavailability of thyroid hormone. Monocarboxylate transporter (MCT) 8 and MCT10, organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1C1, and SLC17A4 are currently known as transporters displaying the highest specificity toward thyroid hormones.
