Once iodization and coupling have been performed, endocytosis of the colloid to the lysosome occurs. The TG is proteolyzed by cathepsin proteases<ref>DOI 266(30):20198-20204</ref> [a] and 7 TH are thus released from 14 mono- or di iodinated tyrosines. | Once iodization and coupling have been performed, endocytosis of the colloid to the lysosome occurs.

The hormone synthesis function of TG is thus particularly linked to its structure. Moreover, research shows that denaturation or a simple modification of its conformation prevents the formation of HT <ref>DOI 10.1016/0005-2795(73)90365-6 | The hormone synthesis function of TG is thus particularly linked to its structure.

The synthesis of HT from TG is stimulated by thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) secreted by the pituitary gland, a gland of the brain. When the TSH receptor is activated, glycosylations leading to the mono iodination of tyrosines promote the synthesis of T3<ref>DOI 266, 20198-20204 | The synthesis of HT from TG is stimulated by thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) secreted by the pituitary gland, a gland of the brain.

On the other hand, if the amount of hormones is too high, a negative feedback is exerted on this process while a small amount of these hormones exerts a positive feedback. | On the other hand, if the amount of hormones is too high, a negative feedback is exerted on this process while a small amount of these hormones exerts a positive feedback. | ||
