thyroxines
Metabolic rate regulators
Thyroxines is the plural of thyroxine, the main hormone produced by the thyroid gland.
Thyroxine regulates metabolism, growth, and development throughout the body.
In medical contexts, the plural may refer to synthetic formulations or different molecular forms used to treat thyroid disorders: The lab tested for various thyroxines in the sample.
