The action of thyroid hormone.

J Bernal, S Refetoff

    Clinical Endocrinology
    |March 1, 1977
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Thyroid hormone impacts development and metabolism by regulating gene expression through nuclear receptors. The precise mechanism linking receptor binding to genetic activation remains unknown, though mitochondrial and cell membrane interactions are implicated.

  • Exploration of interactions with cellular components like mitochondria and cell membranes.

    • Main Results:

    • Thyroid hormone action is fundamentally linked to genetic regulation via nuclear receptors.
    • Receptor interaction leads to activation of protein synthesis machinery.
    • The precise coupling mechanism between receptor binding and genetic activation is currently unknown.

    Conclusions:

    • Thyroid hormone exerts its effects through interaction with nuclear receptors, influencing gene expression.
    • Metabolic effects may involve interactions with mitochondria, cell membranes, and enzymatic systems like adenylcyclase.
    • Further research is needed to fully understand the molecular mechanisms of thyroid hormone action.
