Thyroid, LM
Thyroid gland. Light micrograph (LM) of a thyroid gland showing the follicles. The follicles are lined by a single layer of cuboidal epithelial cells (blue), which synthesise and secrete the iodine-containing hormones T3 (tri-iodothyronine) and T4 (thyroxine). The thyroid follicle is filled with a glycoprotein substance called thyroglobulin or thyroid colloid (blue green), which is a storage form of the thyroid hormones. When actively secreting hormones the lining cells are large and cuboidal, when less active the follicles are distended and the secretory cells flattened. Magnification: x800 when printed 10cm wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of the thyroid gland, a vital organ in our bodies. The image, captured through a light microscope (LM), reveals the fascinating structure and function of this gland. The thyroid follicles take center stage in this photograph, appearing as small circular structures lined by a single layer of cuboidal epithelial cells. These specialized cells play a crucial role in synthesizing and secreting two important hormones: T3 (tri-iodothyronine) and T4 (thyroxine). These iodine-containing hormones are essential for regulating numerous bodily functions. Within each follicle, we can observe a unique blue-green substance called thyroglobulin or thyroid colloid. This glycoprotein serves as a storage form for the thyroid hormones until they are needed by the body. Interestingly, when actively secreting hormones, the lining cells appear large and cuboidal; however, when less active, the follicles become distended and the secretory cells flatten. The photographer has skillfully magnified this image to 800 times its original size when printed at 10cm wide. Through their lens, we gain an extraordinary glimpse into one of nature's remarkable creations – our own thyroid gland. This stunning piece belongs to Fine Art Storehouse's collection and is not intended for commercial use. It represents both healthcare and medicine as well as scientific exploration at its finest.
