Abstract excerpt
Thyroid hormones exert a range of developmental and physiological actions in all vertebrates. Serum concentrations of L-thyroxine (T4) and 3,5,3 -L-triiodothyronine (T3) are maintained by a negative feedback loop involving T3-inhibition of hypothalamic thyrotrophin releasing hormone (TRH) and pituitary thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) secretion, and by tissue specific and hormone-regulated expression of the...
