The anterior pituitary then releases thyroid stimulating hormone also called thyrotropin or simply TSH.

接着，垂体前叶分泌促甲状腺激素，简称TSH。

Diagnosing hyperthyroidism is done by measuring blood levels of TSH, T3 , and T4 .

甲亢诊断是量血液中TSH、T3和T4水平来实现。

If it's due to a primary cause, TSH will be low, an unbound thyroid hormones will be high.

如果是原发性甲亢，TSH水平将会很低，未结合甲状腺激素水平会变高。

In some cases it's because of a mutated TSH receptor that inappropriately keeps these follicular cells active.

有时这是因为TSH体基因突变，不适当地让滤泡细胞持活跃状态。

Usually I just run like a TSH, free T4.

常我只是检查一下促甲状腺激素和游离T4。

But given the fact that my T3 is so high and my TSH is like 0.6.

但考虑到我T3水平很高，而我TSH只有0.6。

These Auto antibodies include thyroid stimulating immunoglobulins which bind to the TSH receptor on the follicular cells and imitate TSH.

这些自身抗体包括甲状腺刺激性免疫球蛋白，它会与滤泡细胞TSH体结合并模仿TSH。

] Foreman: I ran a TSH, T3 and T4.

福尔曼: 我了TSH、T3和T4。

And I always, that's for sure in my initial panel, I'm putting you, you know, I'm checking your TSH free T4.

我总是，这一点在我最初检查中是肯定，我会让你，你知道，我会检查你TSH游离T4。

TSH stimulates the thyroid gland, which is a gland located in the neck that looks like two thumbs hooked together in the shape of a V.

TSH刺激甲状腺，就是位于颈部中央腺体，形如两个拇指勾在一起“V”字形。

If blood levels of TSH are normal or high, this points to a pituitary tumor which can be confirmed with an injection a thyrotropin-releasing hormone.

如果血液中TSH水平正常或升高，则考虑垂体肿瘤，这可以注射促甲状腺激素释放激素来确定。

Yeah, I mean, I think it's, I mean, I've spoken about the fact that TSH should be, I mean, I've got my own ideal reference range.

是，我意思是， 我认为TSH（促甲状腺激素）应该，嗯，我已经有自己理想参考范围了。

They're just testing TSH and you know TSH might be sitting at like four or something and a lot of the times a doctor will say you're completely fine.

他们只是检甲状腺刺激激素，你知道甲状腺刺激激素可能只有四左右，很多情况下医生会说你完全正常。

The cascade starts off with just a trickle, as TRH goes just a few millimeters to the anterior pituitary, where it hits receptors on cells there, causing it to release thyroid-stimulating hormone, or TSH, into the bloodstream.

这种级联从涓涓细流开始，TRH 只到达垂体前叶几毫米，在那里它击中那里细胞体，导致它向血液中释放促甲状腺激素或 TSH。
