Our Stolen Future: Endocrine disruption of thyroid hormones
PCBs to thyroid hormone binding proteins in serum could produce varying degrees of hypothyroidism. The biological result is compatible with the "equilibrium hypothesis" in which thyroid hormone redistributes between specific and nonspecific binding proteins rather than emphasizing the importance of free hormone as the active moiety.

Our Stolen Future: Brominated flame retardants disrupt thyroid function
What did Ilonka et al. study? The authors examined the ability of certain polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), pentabromophenol (PBP), and tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) to prevent natural human thyroid hormone, thyroxine (or T4), from binding with human transthryetin in test tube experiments. Their logic was simple. Ilonka et al. were motivated by the observation that these flame ...

CSWAB: Citizens for Safe Water Around Badger
Perchlorate disrupts the function of the thyroid gland. In adults, the thyroid helps to regulate metabolism; changes in thyroid hormone levels may result in thyroid gland tumors. In children, the thyroid also plays a major role in proper development and may harm the fetus and ...

It is noteworthy that aggression was triggered with trace combinations of multiple pesticides but not exposure to a single pesticide. Specifically, trace pesticide mixtures have induced abnormal thyroid hormone levels. Irritability, aggression and multiple chemical sensitivity are all associated with thyroid hormone levels. More recently, in the Journal of the American ...

DWARF, MIDGET AND MINIATURE CATS (TEACUP CATS)
The lack of growth hormone during kittenhood means that bone sutures (the "cracks" which allow growth of some bones) fuse ... where dwarfism is poorly documented, it may be misclassified as achondroplasia. Hypothyroid: A lack of thyroid hormone results in poor growth and dwarfed cats which retain kitten-like features. Jeune's ...
