the glucosinolate autolysis products of crushed seeds of desclirainia sophia l. (khakeshi) and brassica napus l. (shelghem) were administered orally to rats in doses representing 8,16 and 32 gm seeds/kg body weight/day at intervals of 10, 20 and sometimes 30 days. serum t3 and t4 concentrations were reduced in 10 day•autolysate treated animals in a similar fashion to that found with methimazole...

We have assessed the influence of albumin-bound thyroxin (T4) on apparent free T4 values obtained by two "unbound analog" free T4 methods (AmerlexR Free T4 and Clinical Assays one-step Free T4). We evaluated sera showing three different albumin anomalies: total hereditary analbuminemia, partially corrected analbuminemia, and familial dysalbuminemic hyperthyroxinemia, where abnormal albumin-bind...

t4 and t3, two major hormones of thyroid gland, are responsible for regulation of “basal metabolism” in the body. thyroid function is regulated primarily by variation in the pituitary tsh. in this study, about four hundred individuals were considered from four iranian populations. they were selected randomly in their cities; shiraz, mashhad, rasht, and ilam. essential family information was ask...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess the systemic effects of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on thyroid gland function and, consequently, calcium regulation - as measured by serum triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4), and free calcium levels - when administered after dental implant placement in a rabbit model. BACKGROUND DATA Protocols for the use of laser therapy in several clin...

Our objective was to determine the effect of level and chemical form of dietary selenium on productivity of beef cows, concentrations of triiodothyronine (T3), and thyroxine (T4) in plasma, and immunoglobulins (IgG and IgM) in plasma and colostrum of cows. Pregnant cows (n = 60) were randomly allocated among four dietary treatments of 20, 60, or 120 ppm Se as selenite and 60 ppm as selenomethio...

Aim This experiment aimed to evaluate substitution of soybean meal (SBM) by black soldier fly (BSF) larvae meal in a napier grass diet as performed by an in vitro rumen fermentation system. Materials and Methods Samples of napier grass, SBM, and BSF larvae age 1 week (BSF1) and 2 weeks (BSF2) were arranged according to the following dietary treatments (dry matter [DM] basis): T1, 100% napier ...

BACKGROUND Salvage surgery is often the only curative option for recurrent cancer. In patients whose initial tumor is stage T3 or T4, the primary therapy often makes salvage even more difficult. We therefore analyzed the outcome in patients who were originally treated for T3 or T4 squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity, larynx, oropharynx, or hypopharynx and who then had a recurrence and ch...

The study evaluated the effect of supplementation rumen protected choline (RPC) and fat (RPF) alone in combination, injection Vit-E + selenium on feed intake, blood metabolic profile postpartum fertility transition Gir cows. Forty advanced (8 months) pregnant cows were divided into five equal groups (T1 to T5, n=8) managed individually from 30 days prepartum till 60 postpartum. Cows T1 group fe...

AIM Among the many biological effects which occur during orthodontic movement, we decided to investigate gingival microcirculation. The aim of the study was to evaluate the biological microvascular response to the application of orthodontic force in vivo. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty patients (case group) between 9-22 years of age (average± DS 12±3.01) were selected for the study (M/F ratio: 2...

The effects of thyroid hormone analogues on modulation of angiogenesis have been studied in the chick chorioallantoic membrane model. Generation of new blood vessels from existing vessels was increased 3-fold by either l-thyroxine (T4; 10(-7) mol/L) or 3,5,3'-triiodo-l-thyronine (10(-9) mol/L). T4-agarose reproduced the effects of T4, and tetraiodothyroacetic acid (tetrac) inhibited the effects...
