Did you mean Thyroglobulin?

Glossary Thyroglobulin

protein in the thyroid gland aiding hormone production

Thyroglobulin (TG) is a protein produced by the thyroid gland, which plays a crucial role in the synthesis of thyroid hormones, thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). It serves as a precursor and storage form of these hormones, and its levels in the blood can be used as a marker for thyroid function and to monitor certain thyroid conditions, including thyroid cancer.
