چکیده

Anaerobically periused hearts from rats with experimentally induced hyperthyroidism exhibited accelerated deterioration of pacemaker activity and ventricular performance. The diminished anaerobic performance of hyperthyroid hearts was associated with decreased adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels and a reduced rate of anaerobic glycolysis as reflected in decreased lactic acid production during 30 min of anoxic perfusion.Studies on whole heart homogenates demonstrated inhibition at the phosphofructokinase (PFK) step of the glycolytic pathway. Such inhibition was not demonstrated in the hyperthyroid heart cytosol. It is postulated that an inhibitor of PFK which resides dominantly in the particulate fraction is probably responsible for the diminished anaerobic glycolysis and performance of the hyperthyroid heart.

This work analyzes the effects of Satureja khuzestanica essential oil (SKEO) on the thyroid and antioxidant system, assessed by measuring levels of tri-iodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), malondialdehyde (MDA), reduced glutathione (GSH), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity. Forty adult male Sprague Dawley rats (225 ± 25 g) were divided into five...

The effects of experimentally induced hyperthyroidism on the diving physiology of harbor seals (Phoca vitulina)

Many phocid seals are expert divers that remain submerged longer than expected based on estimates of oxygen storage and utilization. This discrepancy is most likely due to an overestimation of diving metabolic rate. During diving, a selective redistribution of blood flow occurs, which may result in reduced metabolism in the hypoperfused tissues and a possible decline in whole-body metabolism to...
