Resumo: Thyroid hormones play an important role in the growth, development, and metabolism of mammalian tissues. The pro-hormone thyroxine (T4) is synthesized and secreted by the thyroid gland together with a small amount of the active hormone, triiodothyronine (T3). The iodothyronine deiodinases types 1 and 2 catalize the peripheral T4 to T3 conversion. To exert its biological effects T3 interact with specific membrane transporters and nuclear receptors, thus activating gene transcription. Classically, male gonads were considered to be unresponsive to thyroid hormones. Recent studies, however, have shown that thyroid hormones have a critical role in the male reproductive system, not only during development, but also in adult life. Hence, we review and discuss the most recent advances in our understanding of thyroid hormone effects in male gonadal function.

O pró-hormônio tiroxina (T4) é sintetizado e secretado pela glândula tireóide junto com uma pequena quantidade do hormônio ativo, a triiodotironina (T3). A conversão de T4 em T3 ocorre na periferia através da atividade das iodotironinas desiodases tipo 1 e tipo 2. Os efeitos biológicos dos hormônios tireoidianos são mediados pela interação do hormônio metabolicamente ativo (T3) com transportadores de membrana e receptores nucleares, resultando em ativação da transcrição gênica. Classicamente as gônadas eram consideradas refratárias aos hormônios tireoidianos. Estudos recentes, no entanto, têm demonstrado que o hormônio da tireóide desempenha um papel crítico no aparelho reprodutor, não somente durante o período de desenvolvimento, mas também na vida adulta. Neste artigo apresentamos uma revisão sobre o papel desempenhado pelos hormônios tireoidianos sobre a função testicular.HCPA/FAMED/UFRGS2008-05-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed ArticleAvaliados por Paresapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/hcpa/article/view/3090Clinical & Biomedical Research; Vol. 28 No. 1 (2008): Revista HCPAClinical and Biomedical Research; v. 28 n. 1 (2008): Revista HCPA2357-9730reponame:Clinical and Biomedical Researchinstname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSporhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/hcpa/article/view/3090/2292Wajner, Simone MagagninWagner, Marcia SantosFernandes, Natália SonegoMaia, Ana Luiza Silvainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2020-01-16T16:15:43Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/3090Revistahttps://www.seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/hcpaPUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/hcpa/oai||cbr@hcpa.edu.br2357-97302357-9730opendoar:2020-01-16T16:15:43Clinical and Biomedical Research - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false
