Hypothyroidism induces hyperplasia of unilocular adipocytes in perirenal adipose tissue of the ovine fetus
- Abstract:
- Thyroid hormones are important regulators of fetal growth, although their mechanism of action remains unclear. In the sheep fetus, thyroid hormone deficiency increases plasma insulin and leptin concentrations. This study investigated the effects of hypothyroidism on perirenal adipose tissue (PAT) development and adipose insulin signalling pathways in fetal sheep.
