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

KLK7 overexpression promotes an aggressive phenotype and facilitates peritoneal dissemination in colorectal cancer cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KLK7, a tissue kallikrein‐related peptidase, is elevated in advanced colorectal cancer and associated with shorter survival. High KLK7 levels in ascites correlate with peritoneal metastasis. In mice, KLK7 overexpression increases metastasis. In vitro, KLK7 enhances cancer cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and spheroid formation, driving ...

dUTPase is essential in zebrafish development and possesses several single‐nucleotide variants with pronounced structural and functional consequences

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
dUTPases are involved in balancing the appropriate nucleotide pools. We showed that dUTPase is essential for normal development in zebrafish. The different zebrafish genomes contain several single‐nucleotide variations (SNPs) of the dut gene. One of the dUTPase variants displayed drastically lower protein stability and catalytic efficiency as compared ...

Measurement of salivary thyroid hormones using the LC-MS/MS technique in a clinical setting

Therapeutic Advances in Endocrinology and Metabolism
Background: Saliva could be an attractive alternative to blood for assessing thyroid hormonal function. Objectives: Our goal was to determine if the levels of thyroid hormones in saliva can accurately reflect a person’s thyroid status and if they ...

Thyroid Functioning in Diabetes Mellitus Complicated with Chronic Renal Disease

Mìžnarodnij Endokrinologìčnij Žurnal, 2013
Thyroid hormones affect renal physiological development, kidney structure, renal hemodynamics, glomerular filtration rate, the function of a number of nephron transport systems, and water-electrolyte metabolism.

An Out‐of‐Place Etiology: Recognizing FMR1 Premutation in the Memory Clinic

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The FMR1 gene premutation (55–200 CGG repeats) is usually associated with a wide range of symptoms and phenotypes within the Fragile X‐tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS), but may also manifest as predominant or isolated cognitive decline. We describe three male patients referred for progressive cognitive impairment and behavioral changes. Standard

Thyroid dysfunction in the ageing patient

Mìžnarodnij Endokrinologìčnij Žurnal
Thyroid dysfunction is a common endocrine disorder in the general population, with a reported prevalence of 10–15 %. This rate is higher in older adults, with an estimated prevalence of 25 % in some populations.

Thyroid Disorders and Chronic Kidney Disease

International Journal of Nephrology, 2014
Thyroid hormones play a very important role regulating metabolism, development, protein synthesis, and influencing other hormone functions. The two main hormones produced by the thyroid are triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4).

Variably Protease‐Sensitive Prionopathy: Two New Cases With Motor Neuron‐Dementia Syndrome

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We describe two patients with variably protease‐sensitive prionopathy (VPSPr) who developed progressive upper motor neuron symptoms, insomnia, behavioral and cognitive decline, compatible with primary lateral sclerosis associated with frontotemporal dementia (FTD).
