The thyroid hormone (TH) system is involved in several important physiological processes,
including regulation of energy metabolism, growth and differentiation, development and …

In multicellular organisms, development is based in part on the integration of communication
systems. Two neuroendocrine axes, the hypothalamic–pituitary–thyroid and the …

Hormonal control of development during the human perinatal period is critically important
and complex with multiple hormones regulating fetal growth, brain development, and organ …

Thyroid hormone (TH) is the most important hormone in frog metamorphosis, a
