Q

(Thyroid Pathology)

  1. What two things can cause Hypothyroidism?
  2. What happens in iodine deficiency? is iodine necessary?
  3. What occurs in primary thryoid disease?
A
  1. Iodine deficiency, Primary Thyroid disease

Q

Hyperthryoidism in Cats

(What’s Causing It)

  1. G proteins coupled to TSH receptor are stimulatory (Gs) or inhibitory (Gi)? What determines the ultimate levels of cAMP?
  2. Over expression of Gs or under expression of Gi proteins wil lead to what?
A
  1. can be both; relative amounts of Gs to Gi
  2. overproduction of cAMP and activation of the thyroid cell
