Biologic markers in blood reflecting thyroid hormone effect at peripheral tissue level in patients receiving levothyroxine replacement for hypothyroidism
2009
Plasma fibronectin, serum procollagen-III-peptide and sex-hormone binding globulin as not specific markers of thyroid hormone effect at peripheral tissue level were determined and their values were related with serum levels of TSH, free- thyroxine and triiodothyronine during levothyroxine sodium replacement therapy for hypothyroidism. Low levels of biologic markers characteristic of hypothyroidism were normalized in consequence of hormone replacement and a negative correlation between their serum levels and TSH concentration was demonstrated in most subjects
