Application:
TSH test, combined with radioactive iodine to identify lesions in patients with hypothyroidism; for toxic adenomatous goiter, as an adjuvant therapy, increase the intake of iodine. When radioactive iodine is used to treat thyroid cancer, it can also be used to improve the efficacy.
This product is a white or light yellow lyophilized powder, soluble in water. Stable at room temperature, heated to 60 ° C or more quickly deactivated, will not fail after two weeks of storage after storage. Inactivation with proteolytic enzymes, cystine, oxidants (such as potassium permanganate, iodine).
TSH stimulates thyroid iodine, iodine activation, synthesis of T3 and T4, hydrolysis of thyroglobulin, and release of T3 and T4. It also enables thyroid cells to take up glucose and amino acids, enhance glucose oxidation, and strengthen RNA and protein synthesis; it also breaks down fat in fat tissue. Thyroid hyperplasia when TSH is excessive, and blood vessels are abundant. The role of TSH is that it activates adenylate cyclase in the thyroid gland to produce cAMP as a second messenger.
