Thyroid Hormone as a Determinant of Energy Expenditure and the Basal Metabolic Rate

Kim, Brian·2008·Thyroid

Abstract

It has long been accepted that thyroid hormone is an important determinant of overall energy expenditure and the basal metabolic rate. Indeed, regulating thermogenesis is one of the major tasks of thyroid hormone in adult humans. A wealth of data have demonstrated the effects of thyroid hormone on cellular processes involved with energy expenditure, yet in spite of this body of work it remains unclear which 3,3'-triiodothyronine-responsive energetic processes are most relevant for the determination of the basal metabolic rate. Recently, a novel metabolic role for thyroid hormone has been recognized based on the observation that bile acids can activate local production of thyroid hormone via induction of the type 2 deiodinase. Nevertheless, more work must be done before it can be fully explained how thyroid hormone determines the metabolic rate.

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.
