Chemical inhibition of the thyroid gland and its effects on E. coli O157:H7 fecal shedding patterns in sheep
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)Due to the seasonal nature of E. coli O157:H7 shedding and of hormone production by the thyroid gland, two studies were initiated to determine whether chemical inhibition of the thyroid gland influences fecal shedding of ... -
Clinical pharmacokinetics and safety of zonisamide in apparently normal dogs following single and multiple dosing
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)The purpose of this study was to design a dosing regimen and evaluate the safety of zonisamide (ZNS) following multiple dosing and to determine appropriate monitoring methods. Clinical pharmacokinetics were studied in 8 ... -
Localization of the Sodium Iodide Symporter (NIS) in Zebrafish
(2020-03-25)Iodine, an essential component of thyroid hormone, can only be obtained through the diet. The sodium iodide symporter (NIS) transports iodide across mammalian intestinal and thyroid epithelia to deliver iodide for thyroid ... -
Regulation of Pituitary Thyrotropin Production in Red Drum
(2011-01-11)Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), also known as thyrotropin, is a pituitary hormone which stimulates the thyroid gland to synthesize and secrete the thyroid hormones, thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). In tetrapod ... -
Sodium Iodide Symporter Location, Expression and Regulation in Red Dru, Sciaenops Ocellatus
(2017-12-11)Iodine, a non-metallic trace element, is one of the heaviest elements essential for normal biological function. Vertebrate animals must obtain iodine from the environment to manufacture thyroid hormones and sufficient ... -
Sodium-Iodide Symporter in Red Drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) Tissues
(2013-02-06)Thyroid hormones play crucial roles in regulation of growth, metabolism, reproduction, and other essential physiological processes. In mammals, thyroid hormone synthesis is dependent on uptake of iodine from the blood into ... -
Thyroid Hormone Regulation of Deiodinase in Red Drum (Sciaenops ocellatus)
(2011-05-04)The thyroid gland is known to be important in the regulation of metabolism,growth, and reproduction in both mammalian and non-mammalian species. However, little information is available how thyroid hormones act on target ...
