  1. 1. Transcriptional regulation of thyroid development possible interplay of endoderm- and mesoderm-derived morphogenetic signals

    Författare :Jessica Westerlund; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :thyroid; congenital hypothyroidism; dysgenesis; Tbx1; Shh; Isl1; Foxa2; C-cells;

    Sammanfattning : Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) affects 1 in 3000 children and is the major cause of treatable mental retardation. Most cases are due to malformations of the gland, collectively named thyroid dysgenesis. The disease results from defective thyroid organogenesis during embryonic life. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is untreated a major cause of mental retardation. The majority of cases are due to malformations of the gland (dysgenesis). Little is known of molecular mechanisms regulating thyroid morphogenesis. LÄS MER
