Non-thyroglobulin Iodine of the Thyroid Gland
Thyroxine in the thyroid gland is considered to be firmly built into the protein molecule, thyroglobulin (1). Only after the gland is hydrolyzed with fairly strong alkali does its thyroxine become readily extractable with butyl alcohol. The iodine which circulates in plasma, on the other hand, can be almost completely extracted with butyl alcohol without previous hydrolysis (2). Considerable ev...
متن کاملIodine Metabolism of the Thyroid Gland*
Because of the similarity in structure between diiodotyrosine and thyroxine, Harington and Barger (1) suggested that the former is the precursor of thyroxine in the thyroid gland. The formation of thyroxine from diiodotyrosine has been demonstrated lately in vitro (2, 3). Recent data (4, 5) obtained with radioiodine used without carrier indicate the rates of incorporation of iodine into the var...
متن کاملRelations between various measures of iodine intake and thyroid volume, thyroid nodularity, and serum thyroglobulin.
BACKGROUND Iodine intake can be measured in various ways, and each method may have advantages and disadvantages. OBJECTIVE We sought to investigate the potential associations of various measures of iodine intake with thyroid volume, prevalence of thyroid nodules, and serum thyroglobulin. We also sought to identify, if possible, groups at risk of thyroid disease because of their food choices. ...
متن کاملMelatonin in the thyroid gland: regulation by thyroid-stimulating hormone and role in thyroglobulin gene expression.
Melatonin is an indoleamine with multiple functions in both plant and animal species. In addition to data in literature describing many other important roles for melatonin, such as antioxidant, circadian rhythm controlling, anti-aging, antiproliferative or immunomodulatory activities, our group recently reported that thyroid C-cells synthesize melatonin and suggested a paracrine role for this m...
متن کاملThyroglobulin interactions with thyroid membranes. Relationship between receptor recognition of N-acetylglucosamine residues and the iodine content of thyroglobulin preparations.
Bovine thyroglobulin has been subjected to sequential glycohydrolase treatment in order to define further the components of the carbohydrate chain which are important in binding of the glycoprotein to bovine thyroid membranes. Preparations of asialoagalactothyroglobulin exhibit the best binding, suggesting that exposed N-acetylglucosamine residues on the B carbohydrate chain of thyroglobulin pl...
