Abstract:The central nervous system plays an important role in regulating thyroid hormone homeostasis. 5-HT is one of the important neurotransmitters involved in energy balance regulation. 5-HT transporters affect 5-HT function by regulating SERT protein expression and transcriptional activity. Based on the biological correlation between thyroid hormone and thyroid tumors, 5-HTTLPR is associated with thyroid tumors under stress. Animal models of thyroid disease have shown that some of the transmitters in the brain's mo… Show more
