BACKGROUND: Defects in thyroid hormone synthesis at birth lead to congenital hypothyroidism (CH). Recently, pathogenic variants in the SLC26A7 gene have been linked to dyshormonogenetic goitrous CH. This anion transporter is highly expressed in the thyroid and is involved in thyroid hormone synthesis; however, its exact function and cellular localization remain unclear. In this study, we investigated SLC26A7...
