Free Thyroxine Levels are Associated with Cold Induced Thermogenesis in Healthy Euthyroid Individuals

Thyroid hormone (TH) is an important regulator of mammalian metabolism and facilitates cold induced thermogenesis (CIT) in brown adipose tissue (BAT). Profound hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism lead to alterations in BAT function and CIT. In euthyroid humans the inter-individual variation of thyroid...
