Preferred Label : receptors, thyroid hormone;
MeSH definition : Specific high affinity binding proteins for THYROID HORMONES in target cells. They
are usually found in the nucleus and regulate DNA transcription. These receptors are
activated by hormones that leads to transcription, cell differentiation, and growth
suppression. Thyroid hormone receptors are encoded by two genes (GENES, ERBA): erbA-alpha
and erbA-beta for alpha and beta thyroid hormone receptors, respectively.;
MeSH synonym : thyroid hormone receptors; thyroid hormone receptor;
