The thyroid gland produces the hormones thyroxine, triiodothyronine, and calcitonin. Thyroxine and triiodothyronine are produced by thyroid folliclar cells. Thyroid cells absorb iodine from certain foods and combine the iodine with tyrosine, an amino acid, to make thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3).
The secretion of T4 is under the control of Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) which is produced by the pituitary gland. TSH secretion is in turn controlled through release of Thyrotropin Releasing Hormone which is produced in your hypothalamus.kâ¦Iâll explain things a bit further. First, a brief explanation of Thyroid Hormone as well as Growth Hormone may be necessary. Your thyroid gland secretes two hormones that are going to be of primary importance in understanding Thyroid/GH interaction.
