General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism long-term changes in dietary Zn down-regulate pyroglutamyl aminopeptidase II activity independently of triiodothyronine, increasing thyrotropin serum concentration, overall resembling sub-clinical hypothyroidism Rattus norvegicus
physiological function the enzyme degrades thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) released from the median eminence and participates in hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid (HPT) axis function by regulating TRH-induced thyrotropin release from adenohypophysis Rattus norvegicus
