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