The Regulation of Thyroid Cell Metabolism

  • Chapter
Book cover Eukaryotic Cell Function and Growth

Abstract

The metabolism of the thyroid is principally regulated by the pituitary hormone thyrotropin. Other signals also influence this metabolism (see article included in this volume by Marshall), e.g. adrenalin, noradrenalin, acetylcholine, serotonin, etc. (1, 2) but their physiological role is still largely unknown. The action of thyrotropin on the thyroid has been reviewed recently (3). However, since that review, much new information has been provided on the intracellular regulatory circuits in this tissue. In this chapter the role of the cyclic nucleotides cAMP and cGMP, calcium and iodide will be considered. Aspects of these regulations which are peculiar to the thyroid or which may bear on other tissues but have not been considered yet will be emphasized. The role of prostaglandins (Jacquemin, see this volume) and of postaglandin, adrenergic agents, and immunoglobulins (Marshall, see this volume) in the regulation of the thyroid is analyzed in other chapters. Most of the results presented have been obtained in this laboratory.
