Hypothyroidism contributes to OxS through an inefficient antioxidant defence system, opposite to hyperthyroidism, where increased ROS production promotes OxS and oxidative damage of thyroid cells ( Figure 1 ) ( 5.1 Thyroid dysfunctions and OxS 5.1.1 Hypothyroidism Even in its subclinical form, hypothyroidism reduces antioxidant system activity, which promotes OxS, causing oxidative damage and altered lipid metabolism in thyroid cells (84)
