What are the target cells of the thyroid gland?

Essentially all cells in the body are target cells of triiodothyronine. Once triiodothyronine is inside a cell, it enters the nucleus, where it binds to proteins known as nuclear receptors. The triiodothyronine-receptor complexes then bind to deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecules.

Where are the target cells for thyroid releasing hormone?

Thyroid-stimulating hormone, also known as thyrotropin, is secreted from cells in the anterior pituitary called thyrotrophs, finds its receptors on epithelial cells in the thyroid gland, and stimulates that gland to synthesize and release thyroid hormones.

What does the thyroxine target?

Thyroxine is a hormone made in the thyroid gland for the regulation of metabolism, body heat production, blood pressure, and the normal development of the skeletal and nervous systems. Thyroxine is an amino acid-based hormone that targets the genes involved in the metabolism of glucose in the body.
