A Review of the Clinical Consequences of Variation in Thyroid Function Within the Refer... - 0 views

  •  
    study finds variation of thyroid values within the reference range have physiologic impact.  The point is: just because the values are "normal" does not mean the thyroid function is normal.

    combined T4/T3 in desiccated thyroid found to reduce cellular immunity in those with autoimmune thyroid disease.

    thyroid hormone transportation.  The majority of the thyroid hormone receptors are in the nucleus of the cell.

Acute myocardial infarction and thyroid function: New pathophysiological and therapeuti... - 0 views

  •  
    Thyroid hormone plays significant role in cardiac remodeling after acute myocardial infarction.  Thyroid hormone, particularly T3 as the vast majority of T3 is produced in heart tissue via D1 enzymatic activity, improves cardiac contractility, reduces systemic vascular resistance, reduces cardiac work load, decreases blood pressure, improves cardiac metabolism, and thus improves outcomes post MI.

EHP - Sulfated Metabolites of Polychlorinated Biphenyls Are High-Affinity Ligands for t... - 0 views

  •  
    Polychlorinated biphenyl (PCBs) shown to disrupt thyroid hormone function through disruption of the transthyretin binding sites.  Not only is it a xenoestrogen, but it disrupts thyroid function too.

Thyroid Disease and the Heart -- Klein and Danzi 116 (15): 1725 -- Circulation - 0 views

  • The importance of the recognition of the effects of thyroid disease on the heart also derives from the observation that restoration of normal thyroid function most often reverses the abnormal cardiovascular hemodynamics
  •  
    T3 and normalization of thyroid function improves heart function in those with significant heart disease

Leptin serves body as energy signal | Harvard Gazette - 0 views

  • replacing leptin to physiologically normal levels during fasting fully restored testosterone to baseline, indicating that leptin regulates the hypothalamic-pituitary- gonadal axis that controls the release of testosterone and estrogen
  • Leptin clearly has some effect on the thyroid hormone axis,
  • including thyroid-stimulating hormone and the free-circulating form of thyroid
  •  
    Leptin regulates hypothalamic-pituitary axis; and don't forget thyroid too.

Cellular and Molecular Basis of Deiodinase-Regulated Thyroid Hormone Signaling - 0 views

  •  
    Anything and everything one would want to know regarding thyroid hormone signaling.  Doctors, especially endocrinologists, need to read this.  T4 is not or is ever inside target cells.  The enzymes, deiodinase types 1, 2, and 3, are what control the thyroid hormone at the cellular levels.  Deiodinase-2 is what generates T3 in the cytosol of the cell.  In contrast, deiodinase-3 is what generates rT3 which is inactive.  High Fat diet increases deiodinase-3.

The trace element selenium and the thyroid gland. - PubMed - NCBI - 0 views

  •  
    Selenium is very important in thyroid function, not just Iodine.  Low Se levels significantly correlate with thyroid cancer.

Thyroid hormone receptors and resistance to thyroid hormone disorders - 0 views

  •  
    Great review on thyroid hormone receptors alpha and beta, which are nuclear receptors.

Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin in the Diagnosis of Peripheral Tissue Resistance to Thyroi... - 0 views

  •  
    T3, and T4 for that matter, increases SHBG.  This would be a novel method to determine thyroid hormone receptor insensitivity or resistance.

Metabolic Effects of Liothyronine Therapy in Hypothyroidism: A Randomized, Double-Blind... - 0 views

  •  
    T3 shown increase weight loss, lower LDL, decrease apolipoprotein B, decrease T cholesterol versus T4.  This flies in the face of conventional medical dogma, that T 4 (synthroid, levothyroxine) is the only route of thyroid replacement.  In fact, this suppports the use of armour thyroid, a T4/T3 combination.

  •  
    This study doesn't find evidence of low t3-syndrome, but suggests the impairment of TSH secretion (low TSH)is the first potential sign of thyroid dysfunction.

Combination Treatment with T4 and T3: Toward Personalized Replacement Therapy in Hypoth... - 0 views

  •  
    Wow!  JCEM states, "...it may be time to consider a personalized regime of thyroid hormone replacement therapy in hypothyroid patents."  Otherwise stated, combination T4, T3 provides a more customized thyroid replacement therapy than synthroid alone.

  •  
    Thyroid hormone increased localized norepinephrine production and liposlys resulting in decreases SQ adipose tissue compared to hypothyroid.  This study showed a localized effect of adipose tissue by thyroid hormone.
