Thyroid hormone (TH), by binding to THR, regulates several physiological and metabolic processes, e.g., development, metabolism, homeostasis, reproduction, etc. THR primarily heterodimerizes with RXR and binds to its response element to modulate the expression of the target genes. THR has two different isoforms differentially expressed throughout the body, i.e., THRα and THRβ, encoded by two distinct genes, <em>THRA</em> and <em>THRB</em>, respectively. The indispensable roles of THRβ in the regulation of the hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid in addition to biochemical processes, including metabolism, hepatic and kidney-related functions, etc., illustrate that receptor dysregulations are the underlying cause of the onset of several diseases, including diabetes, cardiac ailments, metabolic-related disorders, endocrine-related cancers, reproductive issues, etc. This also makes it a potential target for pharmacological interventions. In this context, the present review focuses mainly on the intrinsic mechanism of THRβ functioning and its contribution to disease progression. In addition, several genetic/polymorphic variations in the <em>THRB</em> gene that are primary driving factors in eliciting rare genetic disorder, i.e., resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH), have also been addressed in detail. We have also highlighted the implications of THR targetability by addressing the impact of TH analogs/modulators and thyroid hormone-disrupting chemicals in disease occurrence and its management.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34427,"journal":{"name":"Endocrine and Metabolic Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49736254","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Longitudinal associations of exposures with incident diabetes were examined using Cox proportional hazard models. Models were adjusted for age, sex, education, occupation, systolic blood pressure, smoking, physical activity, dietary intake, alcohol use and adiponectin.</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>Aldosterone and the combined aldosterone-endothelin score were positively associated with FPG, HOMA-IR, and HOMA-β (all p &lt; 0.05). Endothelin-1 was negatively associated with FPG but positively associated with HOMA-β (both p &lt; 0.05). Only the aldosterone-endothelin score was positively associated with HbA1c (p &lt; 0.01). A 1-SD higher serum aldosterone and endothelin-1 was associated with a 22 % and 14 % higher risk of incident diabetes, respectively, while a 1-point higher aldosterone-endothelin score was associated with a 13 % higher risk of incident diabetes after adjustment for diabetes risk factors (all p &lt; 0.01).</p></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><p>Aldosterone and endothelin-1, factors integral in blood pressure regulation, may play a significant role in the development of diabetes among AAs.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34427,"journal":{"name":"Endocrine and Metabolic Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/e6/87/nihms-1911035.PMC10358435.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9862435","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
