triiodothyronine and Cot Death

triiodothyronine has been researched along with Cot Death in 13 studies

Triiodothyronine: A T3 thyroid hormone normally synthesized and secreted by the thyroid gland in much smaller quantities than thyroxine (T4). Most T3 is derived from peripheral monodeiodination of T4 at the 5' position of the outer ring of the iodothyronine nucleus. The hormone finally delivered and used by the tissues is mainly T3.
3,3',5-triiodo-L-thyronine : An iodothyronine compound having iodo substituents at the 3-, 3'- and 5-positions. Although some is produced in the thyroid, most of the 3,3',5-triiodo-L-thyronine in the body is generated by mono-deiodination of L-thyroxine in the peripheral tissues. Its metabolic activity is about 3 to 5 times that of L-thyroxine. The sodium salt is used in the treatment of hypothyroidism.

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)
