Role of microRNA identified in thyroid cancer
The presence of only five tiny strands of RNA is enough to clearly distinguish cancerous thyroid tissue from otherwise normal tissue, scientists say. The findings provide more evidence that an emerging set of RNA genes called microRNA (miRNA) is a powerful regulatory force in the development of cancer and other diseases. The study is published online in the Dec. 19 Proceedings of the Nati...Longer-lived rodents have lower levels of thyroid hormone
The thyroid may play an important role in longevity, with longer-lived rodents showing significantly lower levels of a thyroid hormone that speeds metabolism, a new study has found. The study further strengthens the theory that the faster an animal's metabolism, the shorter its life, and vice versa, said Mario Pinto, the study's lead author. The thyroid releases hormones that regulate meta...Rabbit Anti-Parathyroid Hormone Receptor 2 (PTHR2) Polyclonal Antibody, Unconjugated from CHEMICON

Thyroid hormone treatment after surgery requiring heart bypass speeds recovery in children undergoing correction of congenital heart defects, according to a clinical trial published in The Lancet. The effects were greatest in the patients who underwent long and difficult surgeries. Following trauma or surgery or during a critical illness, thyroid hormone concentrations plummet. Ma...Levothyroxine Thyroid Hormone Replacement, Approved for Hypothyroidism
The thyroid hormone replacement prescription drug, levothyroxine sodium (Unithroid) for hypothyroidism in adults and children has been approved for use in the United States by the FDA. The thyroid hormaone is involved in the regulation of a wide range of metabolic processes within the body in all age groups. In children thyroid hormones are essential for normal physical growth and i...Hypothyroidism can affect babies
Researchers from UK say that, babies of mother's with hypothyroidism are likely to have a low IQ. The thyroid gland secretes hormones which control metabolism, growth and development. Symptoms hypothyroidism include tiredness, dry skin and weight gain.// Children born with an underactive thyroid gland can suffer learning difficulties. Pregnant women with the condition are more prone t...Another Cause of Thyroid Cancer Discovered
A new discovery reveals a new cause of thyroid cancer. Researchers say in 70 percent of papillary thyroid tumors, one of three genetic changes // happen. The genes affected include BRAF, RET or RAS. When patients have not been exposed to radiation, the changes generally happen with the BRAF gene. However, in patients who are exposed to radiation the gene changes occur in the RET gene. In both ca...Common Thyroid Problems In Women May Lower Their Risk Of Developing Breast Cancer
According to latest research women with a common thyroid problem may have a lower risk of developing breast cancer .// Studies in the past have shown that one of the circulating thyroid hormones actually sustains breast cancer cells. Although animal studies found mammary gland cells responded to thyroid hormones , population studies have shown conflicting patterns in the relationship be...Intact PTH EIA Bone and Mineral Metabolism 021-SDX016 Parathyroid Hormone

Description:DYNOtest anti-TPOn is a competitive radioimmunoassay for the quantitative determination of autoantibodies to thyroid peroxidase (TPO) in human serum using the coated tube technique. For the DYNOtest anti-TPOn BRAHMS employs exclusively enzymatic active native TPO from human thyroids. For the de-termination of anti-TPO antibodies older methods use as antigen denaturated re...TG (Ab) EIA Thyroid Function 012-MDKAT-1 Thyroglobulin anti-tg
Description:The anti-TG test kit is a solid phase enzyme immunometric assay (ELISA) in microplate format. It is designed for the quantitative measurement of IgG autoantibodies directed against thyroglobulin (TG) in serum or plasma. The microplate is coated with human TG. Phase 1: Calibrators, controls and patient samples are pipetted into the antigen coated microplate. During a 30 minute incubation autoan...
