Disruption of the pituitary circadian clock induced by hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism: consequences on daily pituitary hormone expression profiles.

CONCLUSION: Taken together, the data demonstrated that hypo- and hyperthyroidism alter circadian clock gene expression in the anterior pituitary. Thus, suggesting that T3 plays an important role in the regulation of pituitary gland homeostasis, which could ultimately influence the rhythmic synthesis and/or secretion of all the anterior pituitary hormones.
