Thyroid hormones and their diseases
Thyroid hormones play a crucial role in the regulation of many body functions, including metabolism, growth, and development. The thyroid gland produces two main hormones, triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4), which are released into the bloodstream and transported throughout the body. These hormones bind to specific receptors in cells and tissues, where they regulate gene expression and cellular activity.
