3.15. Progress toward and challenges remaining for thyroid tissue regeneration

Romitti Mirian , Costagliola Sabine

Brief Summary: The article provides a comprehensive overview of current advancements and remaining obstacles in thyroid tissue regeneration.Recent studies have identified potential cellular mechanisms that may contribute to thyroid regeneration following partial tissue damage, including thyroid progenitor cells and microfollicles. Yet, regeneration after damage remains limited as the gland has a slow cell turnover rate. Moreover, in cases of total thyroi...
