Description

Rui-Meng Yang and a large team study how the thyroid gland builds its working units, in this 2023 paper. The gland is made of tiny balls called follicles, and faults in their making cause thyroid dysgenesis, a cause of low thyroid function from birth. How thyroid cells move out and form new follicles was not well understood.

Using single-cell and spatial gene maps in mice, the team found a group of thyroid cells at the gland's center with an active NF-κB switch and a partly loose, mobile character. Traced in zebrafish, these cells pushed out and seeded new follicles. Blocking the switch stalled their movement and mimicked the disease. Immune cells of the myeloid type helped by touching the cells and releasing a signal, TNF-α. Fish lacking myeloid cells showed the same movement fault.
