Abstract:To clarify the role of insulin, IGF-I and TSH in thyroid cell regulation, their effects on amino acid transport were studied separately. These effects were noted and compared using both the Wistar rat thyroid cell line and human thyroid cell cultures. Insulin, IGF-I and TSH were able independently to induce the radiolabelled \ g=a\ \ x=r eq-\ aminoisobutyric acid transport within the rat thyroid cells: TSH stimulated the amino acid transport in rat thyroid cells in a dose-dependent way from 1 pmol/l to 10 nmol… Show more
