'''Thyroid Stimulating Hormone Receptor (TSHR)''' is a type of [https://proteopedia.org/wiki/index.php/GPCRs G-Protein Coupled Receptor (GPCR)] found in human thyroid follicles. It is activated by the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroid-stimulating_hormone Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)] which is known as thyrotropin. Activation of TSHR is necessary for activating a signaling pathway for the production of thyroid hormones such as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triiodothyronine T3] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroid_hormones T4]
