Changes within the thyroid axis during critical illness (2006)

Peeters, R.P., Debaveye, Y., Fliers, E., Visser, T.J.

Pronounced alterations in plasma thyroid stimulating hormone and thyroid hormone levels occur during critical illness without any evidence for thyroid disease. Plasma T3 decreases and plasma rT3...

Thyrotropin, but not a polymorphism in type II deiodinase, predicts response to paroxetine in major depression (2006)

Brouwer, J.P., Appelhof, B.C., Peeters, R.P., Hoogendijk, W.J.G., Huyser, J, Schene, A.H., ...

Regulation of Thyroid Hormone Bioactivity in Health and Disease (2005)

Peeters, R.P.

TThyroid hormone plays an essential role in a variety of metabolic processes in the human body. Examples are the effects of thyroid hormone on metabolism and on the heart. The production of thyroid...

Polymorphisms in type 2 deiodinase are not associated with well-being, neurocognitive functioning, and preference for combined thyroxine/3,5,3 '-triiodothyronine therapy (2005)

Appelhof, B.C., Peeters, R.P., Wiersinga, W.M., Visser, Th.J., Wekking, E.M., Huyser, J, ...

Polymorphisms in thyroid hormone pathway genes are associated with plasma TSH and iodothyronine levels in healthy subjects (2003)

Peeters, R.P., Toor, H. Van, Klootwijk, W., Rijke, Y.B. De, Kuiper, G.G., Uitterlinden, A.G., ...

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes involved in thyroid hormone metabolism may affect thyroid hormone bioactivity. We investigated the occurrence and possible effects of SNPs in the...

Reduced activation and increased inactivation of thyroid hormone in tissues of critically ill patients (2003)

Peeters, R.P., Wouters, P.J., Kaptein, E., Toor, H. Van, Visser, T.J., Berghe, G. Van Den

Critical illness is often associated with reduced TSH and thyroid hormone secretion as well as marked changes in peripheral thyroid hormone metabolism, resulting in low serum T(3) and high rT(3)...
