Thyroid Hormone Signaling and the Liver

Megan J. Ritter, Izuki Amano, Anthony N. Hollenberg – 28 April 2020 – Thyroid hormone (TH) plays a critical role in maintaining metabolic homeostasis throughout life. It is well known that the liver and thyroid are intimately linked, with TH playing important roles in de novo lipogenesis, beta‐oxidation (fatty acid oxidation), cholesterol metabolism, and carbohydrate metabolism. Indeed, patients with hypothyroidism have abnormal lipid panels with higher levels of low‐density lipoprotein levels, triglycerides (triacylglycerol; TAG), and apolipoprotein B levels.
