Atrial electrophysiology in experimental hyperthyroidism in rabbits.
Male rabbits received Z-thyroxine (250 /xg/kg) subcutaneously for 7 days and exhibited marked tachycardia, elevation of protein-bound iodine levels and a 26$ mean weight loss. Their hearts were isolated and perfused by die Langendorff technique. In 8 thyroid-treated rabbits the mean heart rate before they were killed and also after 30 minutes of perfusion was much higher than that of 10 control...
متن کاملEffect of experimental hyperthyroidism on skeletal-muscle proteolysis.
It is not clear whether the muscle wasting commonly observed in hyperthyroidism is due to alteration in the rate of protein synthesis or degradation. The effect of experimental hyperthyroidism on skeletal-muscle proteolysis in the rat was studied by measuring alanine and tyrosine release from isolated skeletal muscles in vitro and 3-methyl-histidine excretion in vivo. Alanine release from the i...
