Activation of thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) fundamentally leads to hyperthyroidism. To elucidate TSHR signaling, we conducted transcriptome analyses for hyperthyroid mice that we generated by overexpressing TSH. TSH overexpression drastically changed their thyroid transcriptome. In particular, enrichment analyses identified the cell cycle, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt pathway, and Ras-related protein 1 pathway as possibly associated with goiter development. Regarding hyperthyroidism,
