Abstract:
Objective: To make it clear whether there exists melatonin receptor in the thyroid of human embryo. Methods: Thyroid was collected and sliced up to be stained with methods of immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization. Results: The thyroid tissue was positively dyed, melatonin receptor mt 1 and MT 2 were with both immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization while brown granules deposited in the membrane, plasma and nuclear of the thyroid cell were with the immunohitochemistry. Conclusion: There exists melatonin receptors in human embryo thyroid, either mt 1 or MT 2, and they exist in the membrane, plasma and nuclear.
