Background: Iodine is essential for thyroid hormone synthesis and is an important regulator
of thyroid function. Chronic iodine deficiency leads to hypothyroidism, but iodine excess also …

Objective To investigate the effects of chronic iodine excess on thyroid function, thyroid
peroxidase (TPO) activity, and expression of sodium-iodide symporter (NIS). Methods 500 …

Thyroid function ultimately depends on appropriate iodine supply to the gland. There is a
complex series of checks and balances that the thyroid uses to control the orderly utilization …

Our objective was to investigate the effects of chronic excess iodine intake on thyroid
functions and thyroid oxidative stress state in hypothyroid rats. Sixty rats were divided into …

Iodine is a micronutrient essential for the production of thyroid hormones. Iodine deficiency
is the most common cause of preventable mental impairment worldwide. Universal salt …

Epidemiological studies indicated that chronic exposure to high water iodine is associated
with primary hypothyroidism (PH) and subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH). However, the …

Iodine is an important element in thyroid hormone biosynthesis. Thyroid function is regulated
by the hypothalamic–pituitary–thyroid axis. Excessive iodine leads to elevated thyroid …

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of moderate and mild iodine excess on thyroid function and
morphology in non iodine deficiency Wistar rats. METHODS: Serum thyroid-stimulating …

This study aimed to investigate the consequences of maternal exposure to iodine excess (IE;
0.6 mg NaI/L) throughout pregnancy and lactation on the hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid axis …

Prolonged intake of large amounts of iodide has been reported to increase the incidence of
goiter and/or hypothyroidism in humans as well as animals prone to spontaneous …
