Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) is a glycoprotein hormone produced by the anterior pituitary gland that regulates the production of hormones by the thyroid gland. It plays a crucial role in maintaining metabolic processes in the body by stimulating the synthesis and release of thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), which are essential for metabolism, growth, and development.
