17β-Estradiol Stimulates Oxidative Stress Components and Thyroid Specific Genes in Porcine Thyroid Follicular Cells: Potential Differences Between Sexes
25 Oct 2024
Abstract excerpt
17β-estradiol plays a crucial role in regulating cellular processes in both reproductive and non-reproductive tissues, including the thyroid gland. It modulates oxidative stress and contributes to sexual dimorphism in thyroid diseases, with ROS production, particularly H2O2, generated by NOX/DUOX enzymes. This study aimed to investigate the effects of 17β-estradiol (10 nM or 100 nM) on the expression of NOX/DUOX,...
