To explore the ablation effect of porcine thyroid in vivo ablated with 3 W/1800 J ND:YAG laser, ultrasound examination and contrast-ultrasound were done to observe scope of ablation lesion. The experimental results showed that the ablation effect of porcine thyroid in vivo ablated with 3 W/1 800 J ND:YAG laser is definite, and ideal ablation lesion can be formed.

Thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor antibody (TRAb) is a specific marker for Graves' disease (GD) and the measurement of which can improve the accuracy of GD diagnosis. Current detection methods utilize porcine-derived polyclonal-TRAb, which is unstable and is a source of significant inter-assay variability. This study aims to establish a time-resolved fluorescence immunoassay (TRFIA) method based on stable source of recombinant human TSHR and TRAb for the detection of serum TRAb.

Female SD rats were immunized with iodine-rich drinking water combined with Freund's adjuvant and porcine thyroglobulin(pTG) to establish the EAT model of rats, and the levels of serum thyroperoxidase antibody(TPOAb) and thyroglobulin antibody(TGAb) were detected. Pathological sections by hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining were observed.

The evaluation of thyroid lesions through Fine-Needle Aspiration Biopsy (FNAB) is a common procedure that requires advanced hand manipulation skills. Conventional training models for this procedure lack essential features such as tactile sensation and the ability to repeat punctures similar to those of real organs. To improve the quality of training, we have developed a hydrogel thyroid model that possesses features such as high-water retention and self-healing properties.

Article Synopsis
- The domestication process has been extensively studied, beginning with Belyaev's experiment on silver foxes, which showed that selecting for tameness disrupts systems controlling development, leading to typical domestication traits.
- Additional hypotheses, like the thyroid rhythm and neural crest cell hypotheses, have been proposed, but the recent parasite-mediated domestication hypothesis (PMD) suggests that endoparasites may play a critical role in this process.
- Research comparing parasite loads in wild boars and domestic pigs from Slovenia and Croatia found different parasite taxa in both populations, providing a basis to explore how parasite susceptibility may have contributed to domestication.
17β-Estradiol Stimulates Oxidative Stress Components and Thyroid Specific Genes in Porcine Thyroid Follicular Cells: Potential Differences Between Sexes.

17β-estradiol plays a crucial role in regulating cellular processes in both reproductive and non-reproductive tissues, including the thyroid gland. It modulates oxidative stress and contributes to sexual dimorphism in thyroid diseases, with ROS production, particularly HO, generated by NOX/DUOX enzymes. This study aimed to investigate the effects of 17β-estradiol (10 nM or 100 nM) on the expression of NOX/DUOX, thyroid-specific genes, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-related genes in male and female porcine thyroid follicular cells.
