Immunity is susceptible to reprogramming by environmental chemical and endocrine signals. Notably, numerous thyroid disrupting chemicals (TDCs) have the potential to perturb immune endpoints, but data are lacking on the mechanisms by which TDCs can influence the development of the immune system. T cell immunity is particularly vulnerable to modulation by TDCs during thymic education, differentiation, and selection. The following review discusses the ways in which thyroid hormones may influence T cell development, as well as emerging TDCs with potential to impact both thyroid hormone physiology and immune outcomes. To overcome the challenges of studying TDC impacts on immune toxicological endpoints, a comparative approach using the amphibian Xenopus laevis is recommended. X. laevis are ideally suited to studying TDC impacts on immunity due to the importance of thyroid hormones for metamorphosis, and the wealth of immunological models to measure immune endpoints in both tadpoles and adult frogs.
