Novel thyroxine analogs with hindered phenol, amino and carboxylic acid groups have been synthesized and the effects of the synthesized compounds on angiogenesis using the chick chorioallantoic membrane and mouse matrigel models have been tested. Pharmacological profiles revealed that thyroxine tolerates numerous modifications on the amino group and remains active. These results provide the rationale for the selection of a novel thyroxine nanoparticle precursor.

Background: The clinical characteristics of major depressive disorder (MDD) in adolescents show notable gender-related differences, but the cause of these differences is still not understood. The current research concentrates on the changes in neurometabolism and neuroendocrine function, aiming to identify differences in endocrine function and brain metabolism between male and female adolescents with MDD.
Methods: A total of 121 teenagers diagnosed with MDD (43 males and 78 females) were enlisted as participants.

Objective: Evaluation of structural features and metabolic/biochemical abnormalities of the bone tissue and relevant regulation patterns in children, residing in the radiologically contaminated territories (RCT).
Materials And Methods: Children (n = 148) aged 7 to 18 years old were involved in the study. Bone mineral density (BMD) is given in 3 grades according to the mean square deviation values, namely Grade I - standard (n = 75),Grade II - reduced (n = 45) and Grade III - very low one (n = 28).

Introduction: Subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases due to endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis development. The aim of this study was to determine whether the levothyroxine therapy could impact the concentrations of endothelial dysfunction blood markers, namely endothelin-1 (ET-1), asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) and endocan, in patients with a mild form of SCH (thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) ≤ 10 mIU/L).
Materials And Methods: In this case-control prospective study, SCH patients and healthy controls were recruited during their regular health examinations.
