L-3,3′,5-Triiodothyronine, free acid, also referred to as triiodothyronine (T3), is a vital hormone synthesized by the thyroid gland. This hormone, derived from the amino acid tyrosine. At the cellular level, L-3,3′,5-Triiodothyronine, free acid exerts its influence by targeting the nucleus and modulating gene expression. It achieves this through the binding of thyroid hormone receptors, acting as transcription factors that regulate the activation or inhibition of genes associated with metabolism, growth, and development.
