Thyroid gland THYROID GLAND
Consists of two lobes located on the ventral surface of the trachea.
Produces two iodine-containing hormones, triiodothyronine (T3)
and thyroxine (T4)<br>
03
Located in the neck, inferior to the larynx
The largest pure endocrine gland in the body
Has two lobes that are subdivided into follicles

o Follicle walls are formed by cuboidal or squamous epithelial cells called follicle cells
Follicle cells produce thyroglobulin

The central cavity of the follicle stores colloid
Colloid = an amber, viscous glycoprotein consisting of thyroglobulin attached to iodine atoms
Parafollicular cells (C cells)
Not apart of the follicle; produce calcitonin<br>
