Thyroid follicular cells absorb iodide ions, synthesize thyroglobulin, and add iodine to tyrosine residues to form T3 and T4, which remain bound to thyroglobulin.
Οι θυρεοειδικές θυλακιώδεις κύτταρα απορροφούν ιωδιούχα ιόντα, συνθέτουν θυρεοσφαιρίνη και προσθέτουν ιώδιο στα υπολείμματα τυροσίνης για να σχηματίσουν T3 και T4, τα οποία παραμένουν προσκολλημένα στη θυρεοσφαιρίνη.
| Front | What is the role of iodine in TH? |
|---|---|
| Back | 1. Follicular cells absorb iodide ions from blood and store in lumen 2. Synthesize large protein called thyroglobulin 3. Iodine is added to tyrosine residuals of thyroglobin to make T3 and T4 which remain bound to thyroglobulin |
