This kit is suitable for in vitro quantitative detection of the concentration of tetraiodothyronine (T4) in human serum, plasma and whole blood samples. This product is used for testing in medical and health institutions for the auxiliary diagnosis of the assessment of thyroid function. Tetraiodothyronine, also called T4, is one of the two major hormones secreted by the thyroid gland that are primarily responsible for regulation of metabolism (the other is triiodothyronine, or T3). T4 and T3 are regulated by a sensitive feedback system involving the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland. The hypothalamus releases the Thyrotropin-releasing hormone(TRH), which stimulates the pituitary to release the thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). This causes the thyroid to release T3 and T4 and these in turn regulate the release of TRH and TSH via a feedback control mechanism. Excessive secretion of T4 in the body is known as hyperthyroidism, and the deficient secretion of it is called hypothyroidism. So T4 is a useful marker for the diagnosis of hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism.
