We have previously shown that several thyronamines, decarboxylated and deiodinated metabolites of the thyroid hormone, potently activate an orphan G protein-coupled receptor in vitro (TAAR1) and induced hypothermia in vivo on a rapid time scale [Scanlan,

Corneal Nerve Fiber Structure, Its Role in Corneal Function, and Its Changes in Corneal Diseases
Recently, in vivo confocal microscopy is used to examine the human corneal nerve fibers morphology. Corneal nerve fiber architecture and its role are studied in healthy and pathological conditions. Corneal nerves of rats were studied by nonspecific acetylcholinesterase (NsAchE) staining.

The Role of Thyroid Hormones as Inductors of Oxidative Stress and Neurodegeneration
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are oxidizing agents amply implicated in tissue damage. ROS production is inevitably linked to ATP synthesis in most cells, and the rate of production is related to the rate of cell respiration. Multiple antioxidant mechanisms limit ROS dispersion and interaction with cell components, but, when the balance between ROS ...

TSH and Thyrotropic Agonists: Key Actors in Thyroid Homeostasis
This paper provides the reader with an overview of our current knowledge of hypothalamic‐pituitary‐thyroid feedback from a cybernetic standpoint. Over the past decades we have gained a plethora of information from biochemical, clinical, and epidemiological investigation, especially on the role of TSH and other thyrotropic agonists as critical ...

Thyroid Hormone Action in Cerebellum and Cerebral Cortex Development
Thyroid hormones (TH, including the prohormone thyroxine (T4) and its active deiodinated derivative 3,3′,5‐triiodo‐L‐thyronine (T3)) are important regulators of vertebrates neurodevelopment. Specific transporters and deiodinases are required to ensure T3 access to the developing brain.

Trace amine-associated receptor 1 (Taar1) has been suggested as putative receptor of thyronamines. These are aminergic messengers with potential metabolic and neurological effects countering their contingent precursors, the thyroid hormones (THs ...

Central effects of thyronamines on glucose metabolism in rats.
Thyronamines are naturally occurring, chemical relatives of thyroid hormone. Systemic administration of synthetic 3-iodothyronamine (T(1)AM) and - to a lesser extent - thyronamine (T(0)AM), leads to acute bradycardia, hypothermia, decreased metabolic ...

Trace amine-associated receptors (TAAR) are rhodopsin-like G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR). TAAR are involved in modulation of neuronal, cardiac and vascular functions and they are potentially linked with neurological disorders like schizophrenia and ...
