概括
肠道微生物群的组成与甲状腺结节 (TNs) 有因果关系. 某些细菌可能会对TNs进行保护,而其他细菌则会增加风险,突出显示甲状腺-肠轴用于预防和管理.
科学领域:
- 微生物组研究的研究.
- 内分泌学 在内分泌学.
- 遗传学 是一个遗传学.
背景情况:
- 新出现的证据将肠道微生物群 (GM) 的变化与甲状腺结节 (TNs) 联系起来.
- 转基因和TN之间的因果关系尚不清楚.
- 了解这种联系对于甲状腺健康管理至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 使用孟德尔随机化 (MR) 调查肠道微生物群组成和甲状腺结节的发展之间的因果关系.
- 为了识别可能影响TN风险或提供保护的特定肠道细菌.
主要方法:
- 利用来自大型联盟 (MiBioGen和FinnGen) 的总结统计数据进行MR分析.
- 采用了各种MR技术,包括逆方差加权,MR-Egger,加权中位数和MR-PRESSO.
- 通过严格的统计调整,进行了单变量,多变量和反向MR分析.
主要成果:
- 确定了与TNs潜在的因果关联的特定肠道细菌.
- 鲁米诺可可科科 (Ruminococcaceae_NK4A214_group),塞内加利马西利亚 (Senegalimassilia) 和拉克诺斯皮拉科 (Lachnospiraceae) 植物表现出具有保护性的作用.
- 脱硫纤维菌,Prevotella_7,Faecalibacterium,Desulfovibrionaceae和Deltaproteobacteria与TN风险的增加有关.

Synthesis and Regulation of Thyroid Hormones
4.3K
Low blood levels of the thyroid hormones — triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) — signal the hypothalamus to release the thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH). TRH then reaches the pituitary gland and stimulates the release of thyroid-stimulating hormone(TSH) into the bloodstream.
Upon reaching the thyroid gland, TSH stimulates the follicular cells' active uptake of iodide ions from the blood. The ions diffuse to the apical surface of the cells and are oxidized to iodine. The...

Anatomy of the Intestines
71.6K
Although digestion of proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids may begin in the stomach, it is completed in the intestine. The absorption of nutrients, water, and electrolytes from food and drink also occurs in the intestine. The intestines can be divided into two structurally distinct organs—the small and large intestines.
Small Intestines
The small intestine is an ~7 meter-long tube with an inner diameter of just 2.5 cm. Since most nutrients are absorbed here, the inner lining of the...
