An extremely high dietary iodide supply forestalls severe hypothyroidism in Na+/I− symporter (NIS) knockout mice

Abstract The sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) mediates active iodide (I−) accumulation in the thyroid, the first step in thyroid hormone (TH) biosynthesis. Mutations in the SLC5A5 gene encoding NIS that result in a non-functional protein lead to congenital hypothyroidism due to I− transport defect (ITD...
