What is it about?

hypo/hyperthyroidism alters the neuronal cytoskeleton and neuronal growth either by affecting the developmental programs for expression of specific isoforms

Why is it important?

thyroid disorders during the development can disrupt the cytoskeleton system, mitochondrial functions and gene expression.

Perspectives

Further work is therefore required to determine whether normalization of circulatory THs levels can prevent the disturbance of fetal brain cytoskeletal protein expression.
