Data provided by the National Library of Medicine- Thyroid hormone action: down novel paths. Focus on "thyroid hormone induces activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase in cultured cells".
- Maternal hypothyroidism: recognition and management.
- Retinoic acid induces sodium/iodide symporter gene expression and radioiodide uptake in the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line.
- Induction of follicle formation in long-term cultured normal human thyroid cells treated with thyrotropin stimulates iodide uptake but not sodium/iodide symporter messenger RNA and protein expression.
- Thyroid hormone--sympathetic interaction and adaptive thermogenesis are thyroid hormone receptor isoform--specific.
- Differential regulation of the human sodium/iodide symporter gene promoter in papillary thyroid carcinoma cell lines and normal thyroid cells.
- Thyroid hormone stimulation of osteocalcin gene expression in ROS 17/2.8 cells is mediated by transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms.
- Tissue-specific actions of thyroid hormone: insights from animal models.
- Nonthyroidal illness syndrome: evaluation of thyroid function in sick patients.
- A targeted thyroid hormone receptor alpha gene dominant-negative mutation (P398H) selectively impairs gene expression in differentiated embryonic stem cells.
- Thyroid hormone gene targets in ROS 17/2.8 osteoblast-like cells identified by differential display analysis.
- A thyroid-specific far-upstream enhancer in the human sodium/iodide symporter gene requires Pax-8 binding and cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate response element-like sequence binding proteins for full activity and is differentially regulated in no
- A complex deoxyribonucleic acid response element in the rat Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV gene 5'-flanking region mediates thyroid hormone induction and chicken ovalbumin upstream promoter transcription factor 1 repression.
