Serum concentrations of T4, T3 and reverse T3 were studied in two hyperthyroid groups (n = 13 and 11), in a group of normals (n = 9) and in a group of L-T4 substituted patients (n = 7) with severe pretreatment hypothyroidism. Serum T4 did not change except in one of the hyperthyroid groups change to in which a slight decrease was found. In all groups a significant fall in serum T3 and a significant rise in serum reverse T3 were found. An expected increase in serum TSH in the normal and in the L-T4 substituted groups could not be demonstrated.

D013974 Thyroxine The major hormone derived from the thyroid gland. Thyroxine is synthesized via the iodination of tyrosines (MONOIODOTYROSINE) and the coupling of iodotyrosines (DIIODOTYROSINE) in the THYROGLOBULIN. Thyroxine is released from thyroglobulin by proteolysis and secreted into the blood. Thyroxine is peripherally deiodinated to form TRIIODOTHYRONINE which exerts a broad spectrum of stimulatory effects on cell metabolism.
