The thyroid requires selenium for its synthesis. A deficiency of the selenium mineral alters thyroid function, but is rare in well nourished individuals.
Thyroid hormones, such as thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), require selenium for their synthesis. Selenium is a key component of the enzymes that help convert the inactive form of these hormones into the active form in the thyroid gland.

Growth hormone (GH)
The hormone that fits this description is cortisol. Cortisol is a stress hormone that promotes the breakdown of proteins into amino acids to increase fatty acid release and stimulate gluconeogenesis (glucose synthesis) in the liver.
Se4Br7 is the chemical formula for selenium tetrabromide. It is a compound composed of selenium and bromine atoms, with four selenium atoms and seven bromine atoms in each molecule. Selenium tetrabromide is a red-brown solid that is primarily used in chemical synthesis.
Growth hormone
SeCl2 is the chemical formula for selenium chloride, a compound made up of selenium and chlorine atoms. It is a yellow-brown liquid at room temperature and is used in chemical synthesis and as a reagent in organic chemistry.
Sodium selenide is a compound formed between sodium and selenium.
gastrin
Selenocysteine is the amino acid that contains selenium. It is incorporated into proteins during the translation process via a specific codon and tRNA. Selenium plays a role in antioxidant defense and thyroid hormone metabolism.
okay, well. Ribosomes create protein yeah? and hormones are made from protein So therefore more proteins are needed in the hormone cell then the skin cell. and least... that's my thoughts...I'm not to certain about it tho
Growth hormone, thyroid stimulating hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, prolactin, adrenocorticotropic hormone all require releasing hormones from the hypothalamus.
