Mutations in the thyroid hormone receptor beta (TR-beta) gene result in resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH). Mutation Delta337T in the TR-beta gene has been shown to have the characteristics of RTH syndrome in mice. The aim of this work was to study the possible involvement of TR-beta receptor in thyroid modulation of ClC-2 in mouse kidney.
