Abstract

Taking advantage of the approaching 40th birthday of seminal articles describing the cloning of the genes that encode the nuclear receptors of thyroid hormone, Endocrinology publishes a collection of review articles dedicated to these receptors. The collection highlights the advances in the understanding of the structure, ligand interactions, and crosstalk with other signaling pathways. It reports ongoing research, which continues to reveal the complexity and physiological relevance of nuclear thyroid hormone receptor (TR) functions in tissues. Despite progress, key questions remain about cell-specific gene regulation, negative feedback mechanisms, and TR involvement in cancer. The new collection of review articles published in Endocrinology represents a milestone in a long-term project that illustrates the diversity of information that TR-centered research brings to basic science. They also outline that there is plenty of room for new and exciting investigations.
