Neuroanatomical Pathways for Thyroid Hormone Feedback in the Human Hypothalamus
Open accessAbstract
CONTEXT: Recent findings point to an increasing number of hypothalamic proteins involved in the central regulation of thyroid hormone feedback. The functional neuroanatomy of these proteins in the human hypothalamus is largely unknown at present. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to report the distribution of type II and type III deiodinase (D2 and D3) as well as the recently identified T(3) transporter, monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8), in the human hypothalamus. DESIGN: The study included enzyme activity assays, immunocytochemical studies, and mRNA in situ hybridizations in postmortem human hypothalamus (n = 9). RESULTS: D2 immunoreactivity is prominent in glial cells of the infundibular nucleus/median eminence, blood vessels, and cells lining the third ventricle. By contrast, both D3 and MCT8 are expressed by neurons of the paraventricular (PVN), supraoptic, and infundibular nucleus (IFN). In support of these immunocytochemical data, D2 and D3 enzyme activities are detectable in the mediobasal human hypothalamus. Combined D2, D3, MCT8, and thyroid hormone receptor immunohistochemistry and TRH mRNA in situ hybridization clearly showed that D3, MCT8, and thyroid hormone receptor isoforms are all expressed in TRH neurons of the PVN, whereas D2 is not. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: Based on these findings, we propose three possible routes for thyroid hormone feedback on TRH neurons in the human PVN: 1) local thyroid hormone uptake from the vascular compartment within the PVN, 2) thyroid hormone uptake from the cerebrospinal fluid in the third ventricle followed by transport to TRH neurons in the PVN or IFN neurons projecting to TRH neurons in the PVN, and 3) thyroid hormone sensing in the IFN of the mediobasal hypothalamus by neurons projecting to TRH neurons in the PVN.

In the hypothalamus, DIO2 is expressed in glial cells and tanycytes and DIO3 is expressed in neurons of the paraventricular nucleus (PVN), supraoptic nucleus (SON) and IFN.
“In the hypothalamus, DIO2 is expressed in glial cells and tanycytes and DIO3 is expressed in neurons of the paraventricular nucleus (PVN), supraoptic nucleus (SON) and IFN [14].”
From An update on non-thyroidal illness syndrome (2021) · cites this paper as [14]
High glucocorticoid levels suppress the pituitary response to TRH in man, and glucocorticoid treatment is associated with downregulation of TR neurons in the human PVN.
“Hypothalamic TRH is also modulated by glucocorticoids, as high glucocorticoid levels suppress the pituitary response to TRH in man [69], while a postmortem study in human hypothalamus showed that glucocorticoid treatment is associated with downregulation of TR neurons in the human PVN [14].”
From An update on non-thyroidal illness syndrome (2021) · cites this paper as [14]
Citation [14] is attached to the claim about glucocorticoid treatment and neurons in the human PVN, not the preceding claim about pituitary response. The Discussion reports low TRH mRNA expression in the PVN of a patient with hyperthyroidism, but our copy does not link that finding to glucocorticoid treatment. Searches for glucocorticoids, cortisol, corticosteroids, and treatment-related downregulation found no passage addressing the attributed association; page numbers were unavailable. (LLM, conf=0.76)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredTanycytes express the thyroid hormone transporters MCT8 and OATP1C1.
“In addition, tanycytes are richly replete in the thyroid hormone transporters, MCT8 and OATP1C1 (Figure 7, C and D) (51,101,102), that facilitate the entry of T 4 from the circulation or CSF and the release of the generated T 3 into the neuropil or CSF.”
From Central regulation of hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis under physiological and pathophysiological conditions (2014) · cites this paper as [101]
Tanycytes are strategically positioned to extract T4 from the bloodstream or CSF because of their location at blood-brain and CSF-brain barriers and their high expression of thyroid hormone transporters.
“The location of tanycytes at the blood-brain and CSFbrain barriers and their high expression of thyroid hormone transporters place them in a strategic position to extract T 4 from the bloodstream or CSF.”

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.
