Type 1 deiodinase activity and generation of triiodothyronine (T3) in prostate of sexually active rats.

30 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: Thyroxine (T(4)) and triiodothyronine (T(3)) are involved in the development and function of the male reproductive system. The type 1 deiodinase enzyme (D1) plays a major role in the intracellular conversion of T(4) to the active form, ... Read more...

The influence of thyroid hormones on periodontitis-related bone loss and tooth-supporting alveolar bone: a histological study in rats.

20 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Recent studies have pointed to potentially periodontal risk indicators, however no information is available on the impact of changes in thyroid hormone levels on the progression of periodontitis and on the quality of ... Read more...

Regular aerobic exercise training improves endothelium-dependent arterial dilation in patients with subclinical hypothyroidism.

6 Sep 2009 OBJECTIVE: Impairment of flow-mediated endothelium-dependent arterial dilation (FMD) exists in patients with subclinical hypothyroidism (sHT). Several studies showed that exercise training can improve FMD in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Triiodothyronine'

Definition: A T3 thyroid hormone normally synthesized and secreted by the thyroid gland in much smaller quantities than thyroxine (T4). Most T3 is derived from peripheral monodeiodination of T4 at the 5' position of the outer ring of the iodothyronine nucleus. The hormone finally delivered and used by the tissues is mainly T3.
