• Also called Thyrocytes• Range in shape from squamous to low
columnar.• Surrounded by hormone rich fluid called
colloid• The size varies, depending on cellular
activity, usually between 10-15µm in diameter
• Responsible for production and secretion of T3 and T4 hormones which are transported through the blood and work to control metabolism
• Also called C Cells • Found in clusters between the
follicular cells.• Range in size between 15-
20µm in diameter, usually a little bit larger then the follicular cells
• Secrete Calcitonin • Calcitonin reduces the amount
of calcium in the blood
• Not always common• Range in size, between
50-100µm in diameter• Usually the result of
normal cells being converted to fat cells, also called adipose metaplasia
• Found in abundance in blood vessel walls
• Range in size, usually between 10-20 µm in diameter8
• Help the follicular cells proliferate, or grow.
• Provide thyroid with nutrients, and oxygen from blood
• Autoimmune disorder, a form of hyperthyroidism
• Autoantibodies bind to follicular cells and produce a chronic growth of them.
• The amount of colloid is reduced due to intense secretion into blood.
• Follicles become much larger and not as uniform in shape. 3
• Unique symptoms include: enlargement of thyroid (goiter) and bulging eyes (Graves ophthalmopathy) 6
