Abstract excerpt
Resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) is a dominantly inherited syndrome characterized by hyposensitivity to thyroid hormone caused by mutations in the thyroid hormone receptor-beta (TR beta) gene. Replication-defective recombinant adenoviruses were constructed that express the human wild-type (WT) TR beta, a human mutant TR beta identified in a family with RTH, and luciferase under the control of thyroid hormone...
