Endocrine System-glands without ducts-make hormones
Antibodies are produced against the thyroid tissue (anti-peroxidase antibody) and against the thyroid hormones themselves (anti-thyroglobulin antibody). Also produced by the thyroid is CALCITONIN (made by parafollicular cells). Calcitonin lowers blood Ca2+ levels in three ways:
