Thyrotropic hormone from human pituitary also referred to as TSH can be used as a medium supplement for primary cell culture, and is used further to study the molecular mechanisms of estrogen-mediated growth stimulation of human thyroid tumor cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Two-chain glycoprotein hormone. The α-chain is not active, biological specificity attributed rather to the β-chain. Activates adenylate cyclase in the thyroid gland, stimulating iodine uptake, thyroxine synthesis and release. Goitrogenic.
