How to call GUI elements in different Qt threads?

I have an application in which a thread (not main thread) needs access to the GUI's elements (send a click action, show a message box, etc). I am working in python and Qt and also know that it is not possible when in not main thread. Is there a way to do it? I mean to send the action that I want to do in the thread to the main thread.
