1 The sodium iodide symporter (NIS), first identified in FRTL-5 cells, plays a critical role in iodide transport in the thyroid gland and in the production of the iodine-containing thyroid hormones. Iodides solute carrier family 5 member 5 Rattus norvegicus
2 In conclusion, our data suggest that various agents known to affect iodide transport are capable of differentially altering NIS gene expression and function in cultured thyroid cells. Iodides solute carrier family 5 member 5 Rattus norvegicus
