The acini is a single element of the thyroid gland, which has the shape of a truncated cone and is divided by a septum into 2 halves. Each half contains one follicular cell or one thyroid (C-cell). Acina's triad: · Stroma (lamina propria of the thyroid gland, its frame); · Bubble; · Cyst. The epithelium of the follicles contains a colloid (thick secretion) containing iodine compounds (J, I2), which contains iodothionine. Since the 1980s, the thyroid gland as an organ has also been used to synthesize calcitonin, which is a protein hormone.
Glandular tissue is formed from a single rudiment (during human embryonic development). The development of acinar cells within this bud begins in the early stages and continues until the birth of the child. After the development of the tooth, from which the secretion of thyroid hormones (thyroxine and triiodothyronine) is carried out, the cells gradually begin to specialize, and by the time of birth the hormones begin to be released.
