Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Thyroid hormones regulate cardiovascular functions and energy homeostasis, including thermogenesis, through binding to nuclear thyroid hormone receptors. The thyroid hormone analog 3,3',5-triiodothyroacetic acid (TRIAC) has recently emerged as a therapeutic candidate for thyroid hormone transporter deficiencies (Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome) or thyroid hormone resistance β. Although TRIAC shows...
