Iodine deficiency is the leading cause of preventable mental retardation. Universal salt iodization (USI), calling for all salt used in agriculture, food processing, catering and household to be iodized, is the agreed strategy for achieving iodine su

The thyroid concentrates iodide from the serum and oxidizes it at the apical membrane, attaching it to tyrosyl residues within thyroglobulin (Tg) to make diiodotyrosine and monoiodotyrosine. Major players in this process are Tg, thyroperoxidase (TPO)

Thyroglobulin (Tg) is the most important protein in the thyroid because it provides the matrix for thyroid hormone biosynthesis. Here we review experimental work, principally from our laboratory, on the relationship between Tg structure and hormonoge

Iodized salt and iodized oil are the main methods used to prevent iodine deficiency, but sometimes alternative approaches are needed. We tested the efficacy of various regimens for the intermittent administration of potassium iodide in Hwedza, Zimbab

The fetus is totally dependent in early pregnancy on maternal thyroxine for normal brain development. Adequate maternal dietary intake of iodine during pregnancy is essential for maternal thyroxine production and later for thyroid function in the fet

Iodine deficiency is a problem for almost all countries of the world. Goiter is its most obvious consequence, but others do more damage, particularly effects on the developing brain. In 1990, most countries and international agencies pledged the virt
