Stimulation by TSH leads to the activation of certain enzymes and the uptake of iodine by the thyroid gland, which results in the secretion and release of T3 and T4 hormones into the circulation. The two hormones perform various actions such as regulating heart and lung function, cell ...
This is explained by our retrospective design. Physicians and patients usually opt for an extended medical therapy before referral to a thyroid ablative procedure. We hold it unlikely that this might have influenced the results, as treatment duration over 18 months have been found to be of no...
showed that T3 regulates glutamate uptake and, more specifically, promotes the upregulation of the astrocyte glutamate transporters GLAST and GLT-1, resulting in increased glutamate uptake and thus increased resistance and viability of astrocytes and neurons to glutamate-induced excitotoxicity [67]. Thus...
