The purpose of your thyroid gland is to make, store, and release thyroid hormones into your blood. These hormones, which are also referred to as T3 (liothyronine) and T4 (levothyroxine), affect almost every cell in your body, and help control your bodyâs functions.
THYROID FUNCTION. The functional units of the thyroid gland are multiple, variable-sized follicles, formed by a single layer of epithelial cells, filled with colloid (a proteinaceous material containing thyroglobulin, a glycoprotein necessary for the synthesis of T3 and T4).n the absence of TSH (e.g. by hypophysectomy in experimental animals) thyroid function is depressed and the thyroid gland atrophies; administration of TSH stimulates the thyroid gland and increases circulating levels of thyroid hormones.
