thyroxine and Batten Turner Congenital Myopathy

thyroxine has been researched along with Batten Turner Congenital Myopathy in 2 studies

Thyroxine: The major hormone derived from the thyroid gland. Thyroxine is synthesized via the iodination of tyrosines (MONOIODOTYROSINE) and the coupling of iodotyrosines (DIIODOTYROSINE) in the THYROGLOBULIN. Thyroxine is released from thyroglobulin by proteolysis and secreted into the blood. Thyroxine is peripherally deiodinated to form TRIIODOTHYRONINE which exerts a broad spectrum of stimulatory effects on cell metabolism.
thyroxine : An iodothyronine compound having iodo substituents at the 3-, 3'-, 5- and 5'-positions.

"A case with the combination of hypothyroidism and true myotonia is reported, in which the latter first became manifest clinically together with the thyroid disorder and improved with L-thyroxine therapy."3.68[Unmasking congenital myotonia by hypothyroidism]. ( Klostermann, W; Moser, A; Wessel, K, 1993)
"Symptoms vary from mild to severe and generalized myotonia and worsen with cold, stressful events and hormonal fluctuations."1.40Asymptomatic myotonia congenita unmasked by severe hypothyroidism. ( Corbetta, S; Mendola, M; Passeri, E; Sansone, VA; Verdelli, C, 2014)
