This paper will review the action of thyroid hormones on the kidney with particular emphasis on the biochemical and biophysical aspects of thyroid hormones action on transport processes of well-defined tubular segments and cell membranes. Moreover, we will discuss the role of thyroid hormones in regulating renal cell growth and differentiation. Finally we will outline a working hypothesis for the action of thyroid hormones on the kidney with specific indication of their role in modulating trans-epithelial transport processes.

Abstract

This paper will review the action of thyroid hormones on the kidney with particular emphasis on the biochemical and biophysical aspects of thyroid hormones action on transport processes of well-defined tubular segments and cell membranes. Moreover, we will discuss the role of thyroid hormones in regulating renal cell growth and differentiation. Finally we will outline a working hypothesis for the action of thyroid hormones on the kidney with specific indication of their role in modulating trans-epithelial transport processes.
