Abstract

Thyroid hormone-clearing type 3 deiodinase is located in spermatogonia, where it may serve as a critical modulator of the thyroid hormone exposure of the male germ line and its epigenetic information, with implications for neurodevelopmental and endocrine disorders in subsequent generations.
