This section is a part of the chapter: Impact of Aging and Obesity on Insulin Parameters, T4/T3 Ratios, Metabolic Rates, Sirtuins and Longevity in Congenic LA/Ntul//-cp (Corpulent) Rats
The integrated effects of aging on thyroidal function and other hormonal and regulatory aspects of metabolism are important elements in various aspects of aging and longevity. Changes in thyroidal activity occur in aging, where they typically exhibit a U-shaped curve for plasma TSH concentrations, with variable responses in other parameters of thyroidal function and peripheral physiological actions and their pathophysiologic sequelae.
