Multiple messenger ribonucleic acid variants regulate cell-specific expression of human thyroid hormone receptor beta1.

Thyroid hormones are essential for development, growth, and metabolism and act via T3 receptors (TR) alpha and beta. The THRA and THRB genes have discrete physiological roles but their mRNAs are expressed widely in overlapping patterns. There is poor correlation between TR mRNA and protein, indicating that expression may be regulated by posttranscriptional mechanisms.
