Thyroid hormones are responsible for the conversion of stored body fat into free fatty acids -- the only form of fat the body can use for fuel.
Thyroid hormones can also be extremely useful in overcoming decreased metabolism often associated with prolonged obesity.
Thyroid hormones, including SYNTHROID, either alone or with other therapeutic agents, should not be used for the treatment of obesity or for weight loss.

Thyroid hormones bind to a nuclear thyroid receptor that signals gene expression, a typical mechanism for other hormones such as estrogens and androgens.
Thyroid hormones and steroids are important regulators of neuronal development and PCBs are reported to interact with these hormones.
These thyroid hormones are then cleaved off the Tg molecule and both thyroid hormones and Tg are secreted out of the cells into the circulation.

Thyroid hormones control basal metabolic rate and play an important role in growth and maturation.
In addition to thyroid hormones the thyroid gland is also one of the organs which directs your body to produce progesterone.
Regulation of thyroid hormones occurs from regions external to the gland and from within the thyroid itself.
