The expression of thyroid hormone transporters in the human fetal cerebral cortex during early development and in N‐Tera‐2 neurodifferentiation
22 Mar 2011
Abstract excerpt
Associations of neurological impairment with mutations in the thyroid hormone (TH) transporter, MCT8, and with maternal hypothyroxinaemia, suggest that THs are crucial for human fetal brain development. It has been postulated that TH transporters regulate the cellular supply of THs within the fetal brain during development. This study describes the expression of TH transporters in the human fetal cerebral cortex...
