Inhibition of Iodine Organification and Regulation of Follicular Size in Rat Thyroid Tissue In Vitro

Abstract: The factors mediating the accumulation of thyroglobulin are of great importance to the understanding of the pathogenesis of human and experimentally induced colloid goiters. To elucidate further the underlying cellular mechanism, thyroid fragments from newborn rats were incorporated into semisolid alginate beads and were cultured as three-dimensional organoids for up to 21 d. In five parallel cultures, the medium contained either no supplements (group A), Nal (group B), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) (group… Show more

“…XB130 is involved in cAMP-dependent potentiation of IGF-1-induced DNA synthesis in rat FRTL-5 thyroid cells [28]. Angiogenesis is essential for all tissue growth and occurs in the thyroid under goitrogenic stimulation [29][30][31]. Presumably, the stimulatory activity of TSH receptors occurs primarily on thyrocytes, which may themselves secrete factors that stimulate angiogenesis locally.…”
