摘要

Aims The pathophysiological roles of thyroid hormones in glucose metabolism remain uncertain. Type 3 iodothyronine deiodinase (D3) converts thyroxine (T4) and 3,5,3′-triiodothyronine (T3) to 3,3′,5′-triiodothyronine (rT3) and 3,3′-diiodothyronine (T2), respectively, inactivating thyroid hormones in a cell-specific fashion. In the present study, we identified D3 expression in MIN6 cells derived from a mouse insulinoma cell line and examined the mechanisms regulating D3 expression in these cells.
