3,5-Diiodo-L-thyronine ((T(2)) is an iodinated thyronine hormone that regulates gene activity affecting processes such as homeostasis, lipid metabolism and insulin resistance.

The processes and pathways mediating the intermediary metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins are all affected by thyroid hormones (THs) in almost all tissues. Particular attention has been devoted by scientists to the effects of THs on lipid metabolism. Among

The effect of thyroid hormones on metabolism has long supported their potential as drugs to stimulate fat reduction, but the concomitant induction of a thyrotoxic state has greatly limited their use. Recent evidence suggests that 3,5-diiodo-L-thyronine (T2), a naturally occurring
Growing evidence shows that, among triiodothyronine derivatives, 3,5 diiodo-L-thyronine (T(2)) plays an important role in energy metabolism and fat storage. In the present study, short-term effects of T(2) administration to hypothyroid rats on fatty acid oxidation rate and bioenergetic parameters
High-fat diets (HFDs) are known to induce insulin resistance. Previously, we showed that 3,5-diiodothyronine (T2), concomitantly administered to rats on a 4-week HFD, prevented gain in body weight and adipose mass. Here we investigated whether and how T2 prevented HFD-induced

3, 5-Diiodothyronine (T2), a natural metabolite of triiodothyronine (T3) from deiodination pathway, can mimic biologic effects of T3 without inducing thyrotoxic effects. Recent studies revealed T3 acted as a protective factor against diabetic nephropathy (DN). Nevertheless, little is known about
