Triiodothyronine sulfate 

Triiodothyronine sulfate is the main metabolite of thyroid hormone triiodothyronine (T3). Triiodothyronine is an active form of thyroid hormone, which binds to β1 thyroid hormone receptor (TRβ1), and activates its activity^[1][2].

Triiodothyronine (T3, 100 nM) stimulates the proliferation of hepatocarcinema cells in which TRβ1 is overexpressed^[2]. Liothyronine binds to human β1 thyroid hormone receptor (hTRβ1), and change its conformation. Triiodothyronine promotes growth, induces differentiation and regualtes metabolic effects^[3].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
