Bone cells secrete fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), a hormone that inhibits the synthesis of active vitamin D (1,25(OH)D) and induces phosphate excretion in the kidney. In addition, it exerts paracrine effects on other cells including hepatocytes, cardiomyocytes, and immune cells. The production of FGF23 is controlled by different factors including parathyroid hormone, 1,25(OH)D, alimentary phosphate, insulin, inflammation, and AMP-dependent kinase (AMPK) regulation of store-operated Ca entry (SOCE).

Background: Levothyroxine and selenomethionine were found to reduce thyroid antibody titers in patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis. The same effect was produced by intensive statin therapy. The aim of the present study was to assess whether hypolipidemic agents modulate the impact of thyroid hormone supplementation and selenomethionine on thyroid autoimmunity.

Females exhibit more robust Th1 responses than males. Our previous work suggested that this sex disparity is a consequence of higher activity of the androgen-induced gene peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) in male CD4(+) T cells. The objective of this study was to elucidate the cellular and molecular mechanism of how PPARα inhibits Th1 responses in male mice.
