Abstract:
Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a series of metabolic disorder syndrome relating to insulin resistance, which is a risk factor for atherosclerosis and vascular disease. It includes central obesity, lipid metabolism disorders, high blood pressure, high blood sugar and glucose tolerance. Studies have shown that the human's hypothalamus, kidneys, liver and adipose tissue can express functional thyroid stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) besides thyroid tissue. Thyroid stimulating hormone(TSH) bind to these receptors, involving in the regulation of blood sugar, blood lipids, blood pressure and the formation of fat through multiple targets and signal pathways.
