- | Thyroid hormones exercise essential functions related to thymocyte activity as well as metabolic processes and oxygen consumption. Misregulation of thyroid hormones is the cause of many disorders related to hypo- or hyperthyroidism. Thus, understanding the signaling of synthesis and release of these hormones is essential to the development therapeutic drugs to combat disorders <ref name="Yen">PMID:11427693</ref>. The initiation of the synthesis and release of these hormones is caused by the glycoprotein, thyroid stimulating hormone, commonly referred to as TSH or thyrotropin. The thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) is a G-protein coupled receptor that binds TSH and transduces signal through the cellular membrane in order to initiate synthesis and release of thyroid hormones (Figure 1)<ref name="Kohn">PMID:7709602</ref>. | + | [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroid_hormones Thyroid hormones] exercise essential functions related to thymocyte activity as well as metabolic processes and oxygen consumption.
