Their effects are mediated by nuclear receptors as well as the cell surface receptor integrin \u03b1V\u03b23. Systemic thyroid hormone levels are controlled via activation and deactivation by iodothyronine deiodinases in the liver and other tissues. Given that thyroid hormone signaling has been characterized as a major effector of digestive system growth and homeostasis, numerous investigations have examined its role in the occurrence and progression of cancers in various tissues of this organ system.  The present review summarizes current findings regarding the effects of thyroid hormone signaling on cancers of the esophagus, stomach, liver, pancreas, and colon. Particular attention is given to the roles of different thyroid hormone receptor isoforms, the novel integrin \u03b1V\u03b23 receptor, and thyroid hormone-related nutrients as possible protective agents and therapeutic targets. Future investigations geared towards a better understanding of thyroid hormone signaling in digestive system cancers may provide preventive or therapeutic strategies to diminish risk, improve outcome and avert recurrence in afflicted individuals.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms140816240","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,8,6]],"date-time":"2013-08-06T12:33:17Z","timestamp":1375792397000},"page":"16240-16257","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":47,"title":["The Role of Thyroid Hormone Signaling in the Prevention of Digestive System Cancers"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Adam","family":"Brown","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Interdisciplinary Biomedical Sciences Program, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences,  Little Rock, AR 72205, USA"},{"name":"Department of Physiology and Biophysics, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences,  Little Rock, AR 72205, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rosalia","family":"Simmen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Interdisciplinary Biomedical Sciences Program, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences,  Little Rock, AR 72205, USA"},{"name":"Department of Physiology and Biophysics, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences,  Little Rock, AR 72205, USA"},{"name":"Department of Pediatrics, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock,  AR 72205, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Frank","family":"Simmen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Interdisciplinary Biomedical Sciences Program, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences,  Little Rock, AR 72205, USA"},{"name":"Department of Physiology and Biophysics, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences,  Little Rock, AR 72205, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,8,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"351864","DOI":"10.1155\/2012\/351864","article-title":"TSH and thyrotropic agonists: Key actors in thyroid homeostasis","volume":"2012","author":"Dietrich","year":"2012","journal-title":"J.
