Video Summary

Thank you all for attending the session on thyroid hormone metabolism. The session included presentations on topics such as transcriptional and genomic regulation of pituitary function by thyroid hormone receptor beta, the effects of energy restriction on thyroid hormone dynamics, and the physiologic effects of levothyroxine and liothyronine in older individuals with persistent subclinical hypothyroidism. The presentations explored various aspects of thyroid hormone metabolism and its impact on different physiological processes. Some key findings included the regulation of T3-response genes by thyroid hormone receptor beta in the pituitary gland, the adaptive responses of thyroid hormone dynamics to energy restriction, and the differential effects of levothyroxine and liothyronine on body composition and lipid profiles in older individuals with subclinical hypothyroidism. Overall, these studies contribute to our understanding of how thyroid hormone metabolism influences physiological processes and provide insights into potential therapeutic approaches for thyroid-related conditions.
