Disorder of thyroid hormone transport into the tissues

Groeneweg, Stefan, Visser, W. Edward, Visser, Theo J.·2017·Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism

Abstract

Transport of thyroid hormone (TH) across the plasma membrane is essential for intracellular TH metabolism and action, and this is mediated by specific transporter proteins. During the last two decades several transporters capable of transporting TH have been identified, including monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8), MCT10 and organic anion transporting polypeptide 1C1 (OATP1C1). In particular MCT8 and OATP1C1 are important for the regulation of local TH activity in the brain and thus for brain development. MCT8 is a protein containing 12 transmembrane domains, and is encoded by the SLC16A2 gene located on the X chromosome. It facilitates both TH uptake and efflux across the cell membrane. Male subjects with hemizygous mutations in MCT8 are afflicted with severe intellectual and motor disability, also known as the Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome (AHDS), which goes together with low serum T4 and high T3 levels. This review concerns molecular and clinical aspects of MCT8 function.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
