Specifications
Target Information
Thyroxine, or T4, is a hormone secreted by the thyroid gland. It serves as the main form of thyroid hormone circulating in the bloodstream and acts as a precursor to the more potent thyroid hormone, triiodothyronine (T3). Free T4 (FT4) refers to the thyroxine in the blood that is not bound to proteins. Evaluating FT4 levels can aid in distinguishing whether cats with high-normal or borderline total T4 levels are actually normal or hyperthyroid. Thyroxine plays an important role in the growth and development of cats. It is involved in the maturation of the skeleton and the development of the nervous system, especially in the kitten stage. Insufficient thyroid function may lead to growth retardation or developmental abnormalities.
