35
Thyroglobulin (TG), a glycoprotein containing large quantities of ______, is synthesized on the ____ and ______ of the thyroid follicular cells. TG is then incorporated into secretory vesicles and extruded across the ____ membrane into the ______. Later, the tyrosine residues of TG will be ____ to form the precursors of thyroid hormones.
tyrosine rough endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus apical; follicular lumen iodinated
36
In thyroid hormone synthesis Iodine is (passively or actively ?) transported from blood into the follicular epithelial cells against both chemical and electrical gradients.
Actively
37
In thyroid hormone synthesis low levels of I− (inhibits or stimulate?) the iodine pump. Why???
Stimulate When there is a dietary deficiency of I−, the Na+-I− cotransport increases its activity, attempting to compensate for the deficiency.
38
In thyroid hormone synthesis (competitive or non-competitive ?) inhibitors of Na+-I− cotransport includes the anions _______ and ______ , which block I− uptake into follicular
Competitive
39
In thyroid hormone synthesis I− is oxidized to I2 by the enzyme thyroid _____.
peroxidase
40
In thyroid hormone synthesis organification of I2 into TG is catalyzed by _____
Thyroid peroxidase
41
Thyroid peroxidase is inhibited by ______ (__), which blocks the synthesis of thyroid hormones by blocking all of the steps catalyzed by thyroid peroxidase. Thus administration of PTU is an effective treatment for _____
propylthiouracil PTU hyperthyroidism.
42
In thyroid hormone synthesis At the ___ membrane, just inside the lumen of the follicle, I2 combines with the tyrosine moieties of TG, catalyzed by _____, to form ——— and ———
apical thyroid peroxidase monoiodotyrosine (MIT) diiodotyrosine (DIT).
43
MIT and DIT remain attached to TG in the follicular lumen until the thyroid gland is stimulated to secrete its hormones. T/F
T
44
High levels of I− (inhibit or stimulate?) organification and synthesis of thyroid hormones
Inhibit
45
Effect of high levels of iodine in thyroid hormone organification is known as the ______ effect
