The peripheral tissues (liver, kidney) deiodinate T4 to produce approximately two-thirds of the circulating T3 (around 2nmol/L). T3 has biologically activity. T3 can bind to receptors and triggers the end-organ effects of the thyroid hormones. In pathophysiologic situations, the quantity of reverse T3 (rT3) will increase.,Thyroid hormone action,Thyroid hormones are essential for the normal maturation and metabolism of all the tissues in the body. So, insufficient thyroid hormones can result some abnormal situations: permanent brain damage (congenital hypothyroidism) delayed skeletal maturation short stature delayed puberty (青春期),Thyroid hormone action,Thyroid hormone effects on metabolism are diverse. For protein synthesis: normal concentration improve high concentration suppress For carbohydrate synthesis: improve liver-glycogen(糖原) decomposion inprove the metabolism of carbohydrate For lipid metabolism: improve the synthesis of cholesterol improve the metabolizing of cholesterol,Binding in plasma,In plasma, over 99.95% of T4 is transported bound to protein. 70% carried by thyroxine binding globulin(TBG) 25% by albumin 5% by prealbumin In plasma, over 99.5% of T3 is transported by the same protein. The free T3 or T4 are important for the biological effects of the hormones.,Regulation of thyroid hormone secretion,Outline of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis,Regulation of thyroid hormone secretion,Conclusion If a patients thyroid is producing too much thyroid hormone, then the circulating TSH will be suppressed. If the thyroid is not secreting enough thyroid hormone, the TSH levels will be very high in an attempt to stimulate the gland to secrete more.,Thyroid function tests,Thyroid function test means biochemical measurements in the diagnosis of thyroid disease. Testing items: T4 status (total T4 and free T4) T3 status (total T3 and free T3) TSH level TRH test: intravenous injection of TRH and the measurement of pituitary TSH secreted in response to the stimulation. The titer of autoantibodies to thyroid tissue antigens,Thyroid function tests,The TRH test is used in two ways: Investigation of pituitary disorders. There will be a subnormal TSH response if the pituitary cant make TSH. Investigation of hyperthyroidism.,Goitre,A goitre is an enlarged thyroid gland.,Goitre,The causes of goitre: Hypothyroid Hyperthyroid Euthyroid (甲状腺功能正常的),Thyroid pathophysiology (summary),The thyroid gland synthesizes, stores, and secretes the thyroid hormones T4 and T3 which are important for normal development and metabolism. The secretion of thyroid hormones is controlled primarily by TSH from the anterior pituitary. Most T4 and T3 circulates in plasma bound to protein. Only a small proportion is not bound, yet it is this free fraction which is biologically important.,Thyroid pathophysiology (summary),Knowledge of TSH, thyroid hormone and binding protein concentrations in serum may all be needed in the assessm
