thyroxine and Cot Death

thyroxine has been researched along with Cot Death in 8 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.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The accepted picture of SIDS worldwide is that there is an increased incidence in infants of young smoking mothers."1.29Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS): disordered brown fat metabolism and thermogenesis. ( Reid, G; Tervit, H, 1994)
"The normal reverse T3 values in SIDS, as well as confirmation of the normal T4 and free T4 values, constitute evidence against chronic persistent alveolar hypoventilation or prolonged episodes of hypoxia immediately preceding death from SIDS."1.27Elevation of postmortem triiodothyronine in sudden infant death syndrome and in infants who died of other causes: a marker of previous health. ( Chasalow, FI; Erickson, MM; Hillman, LS; Hillman, RE; Schwarz, EH; Yuan, M, 1983)
"There are 34 infants exhibiting the sudden infant death syndrome, 36 in control group 1, who are matched both for age of infant and for duration of storage of specimen, and 22 post-mortem sera from non-SIDS deaths."1.27Thyroid hormones in the sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). ( Moffat, MA; Reid, IW; Ross, IS, 1983)
