Abstract
Thyroid hormones (THs) are a variety of iodine-containing hormones that demonstrate critical physiological impacts on cellular activities. The assessment of thyroid function and the diagnosis of thyroid disorders require accurate measurement of TH levels. However, largely due to their structural similarities, the simultaneous discrimination of different THs is challenging. Nanopores, single-molecule sensors with a high resolution, are suitable for this task. In this paper, a hetero-octameric Mycobacterium smegmatis porin A (MspA) nanopore containing a single nickel ion immobilized to the pore constriction has enabled simultaneous identification of five representative THs including l-thyroxine (T4), 3,3',5-triiodo-l-thyronine (T3), 3,3',5'-triiodo-l-thyronine (rT3), 3,5-diiodo-l-thyronine (3,5-T2) and 3,3'-diiodo-l-thyronine (3,3'-T2). To automate event classification and avoid human bias, a machine learning algorithm was also developed, reporting an accuracy of 99.0%. This sensing strategy is also applied in the analysis of TH in a real human serum environment, suggesting its potential use in a clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
We review the evidence regarding the nongenomic (or non-canonical) actions of thyroid hormones (thyronines) and their derivatives (including thyronamines and thyroacetic acids) in the adult brain. The paper seeks to evaluate these compounds for consideration as candidate neurotransmitters. Neurotransmitters are defined by their (a) presence in the neural tissue, (b) release from neural tissue or cell, (c) binding to high-affinity and saturable recognition sites, (d) triggering of a specific effector mechanism and (e) inactivation mechanism. Thyronines and thyronamines are concentrated in brain tissue and show distinctive patterns of distribution within the brain. Nerve terminals accumulate a large amount of thyroid hormones in mature brain, suggesting a synaptic function. However, surprisingly little is known about the potential release of thyroid hormones at synapses. There are specific binding sites for thyroid hormones in nerve-terminal fractions (synaptosomes). A notable cell-membrane binding site for thyroid hormones is integrin αvβ3. Furthermore, thyronines bind specifically to other defined neurotransmitter receptors, including GABAergic, catecholaminergic, glutamatergic, serotonergic and cholinergic systems. Here, the thyronines tend to bind to sites other than the primary sites and have allosteric effects. Thyronamines also bind to specific membrane receptors, including the trace amine associated receptors (TAARs), especially TAAR1. The thyronines and thyronamines activate specific effector mechanisms that are short in latency and often occur in subcellular fractions lacking nuclei, suggesting nongenomic actions. Some of the effector mechanisms for thyronines include effects on protein phosphorylation, Na+/K+ ATPase, and behavioral measures such as sleep regulation and measures of memory retention. Thyronamines promptly regulate body temperature. Lastly, there are numerous inactivation mechanisms for the hormones, including decarboxylation, deiodination, oxidative deamination, glucuronidation, sulfation and acetylation. Therefore, at the current state of the research field, thyroid hormones and their derivatives satisfy most, but not all, of the criteria for definition as neurotransmitters.

Abstract
Dermal exposure is increasingly recognized as an important pathway for organic pollutant exposure. However, data on dermal exposure are limited, particularly with respect to the health effects. This study evaluated association between organophosphorus flame retardants (OPFRs) in handwipes and internal body burden on workers and adult residents in an electronic waste (e-waste) dismantling area. The impact of dermal exposure to OPFRs on thyroid hormones (THs) served as a biomarker for early effects. Triphenyl phosphate (TPhP) was the most detected compound in handwipes, with median levels of 1180, 200, and 24.0 ng in people identified as e-waste bakers, e-waste dismantlers, and adult residents. Among e-waste dismantlers, TPhP levels in handwipes were positively correlated with paired serum TPhP and urinary diphenyl phosphate (DPhP) levels. In multiple linear regression models controlling for sex, age and smoking, TPhP levels in handwipes of e-waste dismantlers were significantly negatively correlated with three THs used to evaluate thyroid function: serum reverse 3,3',5-triiodo-L-thyronine (rT3), 3,3'-diiodo-L-thyronine (3,3'-T2), and 3,5-diiodo-L-thyronine (3,5-T2). These findings suggest that handwipes can act as non-invasive exposure indicators to assess body burden of dermal exposure to TPhP and health effects on THs of e-waste dismantlers. This study highlights importance of OPFR effect on human THs through dermal exposure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Our previous study has demonstrated that the egg-white-derived peptide RVPSL can lower blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs), but its potential action mechanism remains unclear. In this work, the underlying mechanism of the antihypertensive effects of RVPSL in SHRs was elucidated using the widely targeted kidney metabolomics approach. RESULTS Ten SHRs were divided into two groups: SHR-Untreated group (0.9% saline) and SHR-RVPSL group (50 mg kg-1 body weight RVPSL) for 4 weeks. After 4 weeks, kidney samples were collected and widely targeted (liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry) metabolomics was used to detect metabolites. Fifty-six biomarkers were identified that may be associated with hypertension. Among them, 17 biomarkers were upregulated and 39 biomarkers were downregulated. The results suggested that eight potential biomarkers were identified in kidney samples: O-phospho-l-serine, tyramine, citric acid, 3-hydroxybutyrate, O-acetyl-l-serine, 15-oxo-5Z,8Z,11Z,13E-eicosatetraenoic acid (15-oxoETE), dopaquinone and 3,3',5-triiodo-l-thyronine. These potential biomarkers mainly involved carbon metabolism, thyroid hormone signaling pathway, tyrosine metabolism and arachidonic acid metabolism. CONCLUSION The study suggested that RVPSL may exert antihypertensive effects through upregulation of O-phospho-l-serine, 3-hydroxybutyrate and 15-oxoETE, and downregulation of tyramine, citric acid, O-acetyl-l-serine, 3,3',5-triiodo-l-thyronine and dopaquinone. The antihypertensive effects of RVPSL may be related to carbon metabolism, thyroid hormone signaling pathway, tyrosine metabolism and arachidonic acid metabolism. RVPSL exhibited a potent antihypertensive effect, and the antihypertensive effects were associated with inhibition of vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation, vascular remodeling, vascular endothelium dysfunction, restoring reactive oxygen species, oxidative stress, inflammation and immune reaction. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been shown to influence endogenous hormones levels in animal models, but little is known about the effects of their mixtures. For hormone measurements, hair analysis is a promising approach to provide information on long-term status of hormones. Herein we used hair analysis to assess the combined effects of 13 PAHs on steroid and thyroid hormones levels in a rat model. The PAH mixture was administered orally three times per week to female rats at doses of 0, 10, 20, 40, 80, 200, 400 and 800 μg/kg of body weight for each compound over a 90-day exposure period. Fourteen out of 36 analyzed hormones were detected in rat hair, including pregnenolone (P5), 17α-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP4), corticosterone (CORT), dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), androstenedione (AD), 3,3'-diiodo-L-thyronine (T2), 3,3',5-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3), and 3,5,3',5'-triiodo-L-thyronine (T4). The PAH mixture significantly elevated P5 and DHEA levels at the doses of 200 and 400 μg/kg but reduced T2 and T3 levels at the highest dose as compared to the control. While P5, DHEA, 17-OHP4 and AD concentrations exhibited inverted U-shaped dose responses, T2, T3 and T4 concentrations exhibited inverse linear dose responses, which are further confirmed by their relationships with hair hydroxylated PAHs (OH-PAHs) concentrations. Likewise, there were significant nonmonotonic relationships of hormone molar ratios (e.g., AD/17-OHP4 and DHEA/CORT ratios) with exposure intensity and OH-PAHs. Overall, our results demonstrate the capability of PAH mixtures to interfere with steroid and thyroid hormones in female rats.

Abstract
The Allan-Herndon Dudley Syndrome (AHDS) is a rare disease caused by the progressive loss of monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8). In patients with AHDS, the absence of MCT8 impairs transport of thyroid hormones (TH) through the blood brain barrier, leading to a central state of TH deficiency. In mice, the AHDS is mimicked by simultaneous deletion of the TH transporters MCT8 and the solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 1c1 (OATP1C1). To support preclinical mouse studies, an analytical methodology was developed and successfully applied for quantifying selected thyroid hormones in mouse whole brain and in specific regions using liquid chromatography tandem mass-spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). An important requirement for the methodology was its high sensitivity since a very low concentration of THs was expected in MCT8/OATP1C1 double-knockout (dko) mouse brain. Seven THs were targeted: L-thyroxine (T4), 3,3,5-triiodo-L-thyronine-thy-ronine (T3), 3,3’,5’-triiodo-L-thyronine-thyronine (rT3), 3,3-diiodo-L-thyronine (3,3’-T2, T2), 3,5-diiodo-L-thyro-nine (rT2, 3,5-T2), 3-iodo-L-thyronine (T1), 3-iodothyronamine (T1AM). Isotope dilution liquid chromatography triple-quadrupole mass spectrometry methodology was applied for detection and quantification. The method was validated in wild-type animals for mouse whole brain and for five different brain regions (hypothalamus, hippocampus, prefrontal cortex, brainstem and cortex). Instrumental calibration curves ranged from 0.35 to 150 pg/μL with good linearity (r2 >0.996). The limit of quantification was from 0.08 to 0.6 pg/mg, with an intra- and inter-day precision of 4.2−14.02% and 0.4−17.9% respectively, and accuracies between 84.9% and 114.8% when the methodology was validated for the whole brain. In smaller, distinct brain regions, intra- and inter-day precision were 0.6−20.7% and 2.5−15.6% respectively, and accuracies were 80.2−128.6%. The new methodology was highly sensitive and allowed for the following quantification in wild-type mice: (i) for the first time, four distinct thyroid hormones (T4, T3, rT3 and 3,3’-T2) in only approximately 100 mg of mouse brain were detected; (ii) the quantification of T4 and T3 for the first time in distinct mouse brain regions were reported. Further, application of our method to MCT8/OATP1C1 dko mice revealed the expected, relative lack of T3 and T4 uptake into the brain, and confirmed the utility of our analytical method to study TH transport across the blood brain barrier in a preclinical model of central TH deficiency.

Abstract
Abstract
Maximum amounts of liothyronine and thyroxine were released from pork thyroid by the proteolytic action of erepsin and trypsin after incubation for 96 hr. at 39°. The iodinated thyronines were extracted from the hydrolysate with butanol, separated chromatographically, eluted from the paper and measured quantitatively by a chemical method in which the reduction of ceric ion by arsenious acid is catalysed by the iodine containing compounds. The iodine found in liothyronine and thyroxine accounted for 18 to 25 per cent of the total organic iodine in pork thyroid. It is postulated that pork thyroglobulin contains approximately 1 molar residue of liothyronine and 2 molar residues of thyroxine.

Abstract
1. Ratios of mono[(131)I]iodotyrosine and di[(131)I]iodotyrosine (R values) and the incorporation of (131)I into iodothyronines have been estimated in rat thyroid glands from 30min. to 38hr. after the administration of [(131)I]iodide. 2. In rats receiving a powdered low-iodine diet the R values were close to unity and did not change with time after the administration of [(131)I]iodide. In rats receiving a commercial pellet diet the R values fell from a mean of 0.8 at 30min. after [(131)I]iodide administration to 0.49 at 38hr. 3. Administration of 0.5-2.0i.u. of thyroid-stimulating hormone before giving the injection of [(131)I]iodide caused a small diminution in the R value when the time between injecting [(131)I]iodide and killing the animal was 16hr. or more. 4. Iodothyronines represented a greater percentage of the total thyroid-gland radioactivity in the iodine-deficient animals than in animals fed on the pellet diet. Thyroid-stimulating hormone had little effect, if any, on the iodothyronine contents.

Although abundant, available information regarding the values of circulating thyronines in the rainbow trout is misleading and confusing. The present study demonstrates the importance of maintaining species serum-homology when measuring thyronines with RIA to avoid spurious results. The utilization of homologous (trout) serum free of thyronines in the standard curve allowed the standardization of accurate and specific radioimmunoassays to quantitate circulating T3 and T4 levels in 10 microliters of rainbow trout serum. Detection limit was 50 pg for both thyronines. Inter- and intra-assay coefficients of variation were minor to 10%. Mean values for T3 and T4 +/- SEM in the trout population studied (n = 34) were 23.6 +/- 1.2 and 12.0 +/- 2.3 ng/ml respectively. A positive and significant correlation (p < 0.005) between body weight and T3 was observed, confirming the active participation of this thyronine in growth processes.

Abstract
1H NMR data of a series of thyroid hormone analogues, e.g., thyroxine (T4), 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3), 3,3',5'-triiodothyronine (rT3), 3,3'-diiodothyronine (3,3'-T2), 3,5-diiodothyronine (3,5-T2), 3',5'-diiodothyronine (3',5'-T2), 3-monoidothyronine (3-T1), 3'-monoiodothyronine (3'-T1), and thyronine (TO) in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) have been obtained on a 300 MHz spectrometer. The chemical shift and coupling constant are determined and tabulated for each aromatic proton. The inner tyrosyl ring protons in T4, T3, and 3,5-T2 have downfield chemical shifts with respect to those of the outer phenolic ring protons. Four-bond cross-ring coupling has been observed in all the monoiodinated rings. However, this long-range coupling does not exist in T4, diiodinated on both rings, and T0, containing no iodines on the rings. There is no evidence that at 30 degrees C these iodothyronines have any motional constraint in DMSO solution. In addition to identification of the hormones, the potential use of some characteristic peaks as probes in binding studies is discussed.

Abstract
18 metabolically healthy female patients with cholelithiasis, who had to undergo cholecystectomy, were divided into 3 groups and studied for a 4-day period. Group I, n = 6, received beginning on the operationday 0,19 g/kg BW X h of a polyol-mixture-solution (Sorbitol/Xylitol 1:1) and 0,86 g 1-crystalline amino acids (AA)/kg BW X day. Group II, n = 6, received beginning 24 h preoperatively only 1,14 g 1-crystalline AA/kg BW X day. Group III, n = 6, received beginning 24 h preoperatively 0,07 g Xylitol/kg BW X h, 0,03 g Glucose/kg BW X h and 1,14 g 1-crystalline AA/kg BW X day. In this study we could demonstrate that the pre-, intra- and postoperative hormonal and metabolic response is strongly influenced by different infusion regimens. Only by the simultaneous infusion of carbohydrate together with AA during the preoperative period a significant drop of triiodothyronine can be avoided. The rise of insulin and cortisol in the early postoperative period is augmented by the infusion of carbohydrates together with AA. There was no difference in growth hormone response to surgery between group I-III. All 3 groups showed a continuous fall of cholesterol during the study period.

Abstract
The thyromimetic activity of 3,5-dimethyl-3'-isopropyl-L-thyronine (DIMIT), a nonhalogenated thyroid analog, was studied in adult men using suppression of TRH-induced TSH release to assess this activity. In nine men, aged 30-58 yr, the TSH increment after 500 microgram TRH iv was compared to the TSH response to TRH 24 h after oral administration of 1 mg DIMIT. Eight euthyroid subjects had normal baseline TSH levels of 1.5 +/- 0.2 (SE) microunit/ml that fell significantly to 0.7 +/- 0.2 microunit/ml 24 h after DIMIT (P less than 0.005). Their TSH increments after TRH fell from 15.3 +/- 2.8 to 6.7 +/- 1.6 microunit/ml 24 h after DIMIT (P less than 0.001). One subject with probable Hashimoto's thyroditis had an elevated TSH of 18 microunit/ml, with an exaggerated TSH response to TRH of 72 microunit/ml. His basal TSH fell to 7.6 and his TSH increment fell to 14.3 microunit/ml 24 h after DIMIT. The suppression of TSH was relatively prolonged. In four subjects, the TSH response to TRH was still blunted from 5-12 days after DIMIT. In one subject, the TSH increment returned to normal 15 days after DIMIT. DIMIT had no significant effect on PRL secretion. There was no evidence of toxicity in patients receiving DIMIT. DIMIT has effective thyromimetic activity in man, as shown by its significant and prolonged suppression of TSH secretion.

Abstract
The reaction conditions of the monoiodination of L-diiodothyronine and L-triiodothyronine by nonradioactive iodide have been investigated by separation of the reaction mixture on sephadex G-25 with sodium hydroxide 10 mmol/l as eluent and quantitative iodine estimation in the eluate. When labelling with 125I was performed under optimal conditions, a good yield of chromatographically pure L-triiodothyronine or L-thyroxine was obtained with a specific radioactivity between 2 and 3 Ci/mg. The synthesized labelled hormones were tested by radioimmunoassay. They enable a detection of less than 2 pg T3 and less than 5 pg T4.

Abstract
ABSTRACT
In an experimental rat thyroid tumour (Wollman line 1-1C2) thyroglobulin (TG) was isolated from soluble iodoproteins by ammonium sulphate fractionation and density gradient ultracentrifugation. The isolated TG was characterized by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, microimmunodiffusion, immunoelectrophoresis, analytical ultracentrifugation and by chemical determination of sialic acid and iodine content.
Tumour thyroglobulin has a sedimentation coefficient of 17.7S, which is similar to that of enzymatically desialylated thyroglobulin (18.4S) in the normal rat; tumour TG shows a slower electrophoretic mobility than native TG and similar to rat desialylated TG.
In double immunodiffusion tumour TG is shown to precipitate with an identity reaction with both native and desialylated rat TG; in immunoelectrophoresis it has a slower migration than native TG and is very close to that of enzymatically desialylated TG. Tumour TG has an iodine content of 0.02 % and a sialic content of 0.15 %. Chromatography of the 125I-labelled tumour TG revealed the presence of mono- and diiodothyrosines, a very small amount of triiodothyronine but no thyroxine.
These results suggest that tumour TG, isolated in the experimental rat thyroid tumour, previously shown not to incorporate sialic acid into thyroglobulin, has a different electrophoretic mobility from native TG but is very similar to desialylated rat TG and has a very low sialic acid and iodine content as well as a striking decrease in thyroxine.

Abstract
1. Pancreatin or Pronase hydrolysis of partially purified heat-denatured (125)I-labelled thyroglobulin does not release all the iodoamino acids from peptide linkage. 2. The addition of thyroidal proteases is essential to obtain maximum hydrolysis of thyroglobulin. 3. Pronase plus a fresh non-radioactive thyroid homogenate gives the best hydrolysis results, but peptide ;mapping' shows that about 10% of the radioactivity remains in the form of peptides. 4. These peptides have approximately the same R(F) as the iodotyrosines on one-dimensional chromatograms developed in butan-1-ol-2n-acetic acid (1:1, v/v). 5. Peptic hydrolysis of thyroglobulin releases virtually all of the iodothyronines but little of the iodotyrosines, in contrast with the action of pancreatin. 6. Hydrolysis of thyroglobulin with pepsin followed by Pronase plus a source of thyroidal proteases is satisfactory, but the results are not superior to those obtained by using Pronase plus a source of thyroidal proteases.
