Current revision
Thyroxine, or 3,5,3',5'-tetraiodothyronine (often abbreviated as T4), a form of thyroid hormones is the major hormone secreted by the follicular cells of the thyroid gland.
Synthesis
The hormone was synthesised in 1927 by British chemists Charles Robert Harington and George Barger.
Thyroxine is synthesized via the iodination of tyrosines (MONOIODOTYROSINE) and the coupling of iodotyrosines (DIIODOTYROSINE) in the THYROGLOBULIN. Thyroxine is released from thyroglobulin by proteolysis and secreted into the blood. Thyroxine is peripherally deiodinated to form TRIIODOTHYRONINE which exerts a broad spectrum of stimulatory effects on cell metabolism.
T4 is transported in blood, with 99.95% of the secreted T4 being protein bound, principally to thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG), and, to a lesser extent, to transthyretin and serum albumin. T4 is involved in controlling the rate of metabolic processes in the body and influencing physical development. Administration of thyroxine has been shown to significantly increase the concentration of nerve growth factor in the brains of adult mice.<ref>Walker et al. (27 April 1979) Thyroxine increases nerve growth factor concentration in adult mouse brain. Science. Vol. 204, No. 4391. pp. 427 - 429.</ref>
Note: Thyroxine is a prohormone and a reservoir for the active thyroid hormone triiodothyronine (T3). T4 is converted in the tissues by deiodinases to T3. The "D" isomer is called "Dextrothyroxine"<ref>Template:MeshName</ref> and is used as a lipid modifying agent.<ref>Template:ATC</ref> The half-life of thyroxine once released into the blood circulatory system is about 1 week.

The hormones that most directly control tissue activities in health and disease are delivered by two noninhibitory members of the serpin family of protease inhibitors, thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG) and corticosteroid-binding globulin. The structure of TBG bound to tetra-iodo thyroxine, solved here at 2.8 A, shows how the thyroxine is carried in a surface pocket on the molecule.... |
