What is it about?

Skeletal muscle is fundamental to many body functions from walking to respiration. We have reviewed specific effects of thyroid hormones, T3 and T4 in skeletal muscle. We also prepared 2 figures with all main information about skeletal development and the effects of T3 and T4 in the skeletal muscle.

Why is it important?

The paper reviews the main findings regarding the influence of thyroid hormone on skeletal muscle physiology. We summaries recent reports about the influence of thyroid hormone on muscle function, bioenergetics, myogenesis, aging and illness.We believe that our review will be a relevant contribution to the literature, since we explore diverse aspects of how thyroid hormones can modulates skeletal muscle function.
