Does the parathyroid secretes triiodothyronine?
The parathyroid produces a hormone called the parathyroid hormone. When the thyroid receives thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) from the pituitary gland it produces triiodothyronine which is commonly referred to as T3, and thyroxine which is commonly referred to as T4.
What are the antagonistic hormone?
Antagonistic hormones are the hormones that have opposite effect in the body. For example, insulin and glucagon, para thyroid hormone and calcatonin.
What are the functions of thyroxine and triiodothyronine?
Thyroid hormones T4 (thyroxine) and T3 (triiodothyronine) control the metabolism of all the cells in the body. T4 is known as storage hormone and is the main thyroid hormone produced by the thyroid gland. The 4 indicates the number of iodine molecules attached to it. T4 cannot be used directly by the body until an iodine molecule is dropped and it becomes T3. This is called conversion. T3 is the hormone actually used by cells.
What does triiodothyronine and thyroxine do?
When the thyroid receives thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) from the pituitary gland it produces triiodothyronine which is commonly referred to as T3, and thyroxine which is commonly referred to as T4. These hormones regulate the metabolism, protein synthesis and sensitivity to other hormones in the body.
