2. Desiccated thyroid extract - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desiccated_thyroid_extract

   Desiccated Thyroid became a commercial treatment option in 1934 with Westhroid, [citation needed]. In the early 1960s, desiccated thyroid hormones (thyroid extract) began to be replaced by levothyroxine (synthetic T4), or by combinations of T4 and T3. Replacement occurred faster in the United Kingdom than in North America, but by the 1980s more ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3,5-Diiodothyronine

   3,5-T 2 is an active thyroid hormone. It stimulates the TR-beta receptor for thyroid hormones and thus increases energy expenditure. [1] [2] It has agonistic (thyromimetic) effects at myocardial tissue and pituitary, which results in 3,5-T 2 suppressing TSH release.

   Thyroglobulin (Tg) is a 660 kDa, dimeric glycoprotein produced by the follicular cells of the thyroid and used entirely within the thyroid gland. Tg is secreted and accumulated at hundreds of grams per litre in the extracellular compartment of the thyroid follicles, accounting for approximately half of the protein content of the thyroid gland.

   Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) is produced by the pituitary gland, another hormone-producing organ in the head. This in turn causes the thyroid to produce T3 and T4, which play a role in the ...

6. Iodised salt - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodised_salt

   Any of these compounds supplies the body with the iodine required for the biosynthesis of thyroxine (T 4) and triiodothyronine (T 3) hormones by the thyroid gland. Animals also benefit from iodine supplements, and the hydrogen iodide derivative of ethylenediamine is the main supplement to livestock feed. [5]

7. Triiodothyronine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triiodothyronine

   Triiodothyronine, also known as T 3, is a thyroid hormone. It affects almost every physiological process in the body, including growth and development, metabolism, body temperature, and heart rate. [1] Production of T 3 and its prohormone thyroxine (T 4) is activated by thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH
