this study investigated the effects of five levels of galanin on plasma concentrations of growth hormone , triiodothyronine, thyroxine and milk fat in dairy goat breed was sannan .15 breeds of dairy goats sannan all about the same age and weight were selected for this study and were randomly divided into five treatments ( three replicates per treatment ). levels of the hormone injection of gala...

the goal of this research is to study the effect of benzo-alpha-pyrene (bαp) as a pollutant on the plasma levels of cortisol, thyroxin (t4), and triiodothyronine (t3) hormones, and the t3/t4 ratio in the yellowfin sea bream, acanthopagrus latus. the bαp (50 mg kg-1) in vegetable oil was peritoneally injected. blood samples were obtained from the treated and control groups after 3 and 72 hr, res...

The metabolism of 3, 5-[3'-125I]triiodothyronin (T3) and 3-[3', 5'-125I]triiodothyronine (rT3) was studied in cultured monkey hepatocarcinoma cells (NCLP-6E), and the deiodinations of these iodothyronines were also investigated in cultured cell homogenates and in rat liver homogenates. The metabolites were analyzed by ion exchange column chromatography. For nonphenolic ring deiodination of 3, 5...

Total and free serum concentrations of thyroxine and triiodothyronine were measured in 122 subjects with hypothyroidism who were clinically well while receiving conventional replacement treatment with thyroxine. In a third of patients concentrations of total and free thyroxine were raised, often considerably; nevertheless concentrations of total and free triiodothyronine were usually normal. Th...

The effects of anaesthesia on serum thyroid hormones were studied in 32 pregnant young women undergoing Caesarean section at term. Eighteen patients received general anaesthesia and 14 lumbar extradural blockade. Maternal serum concentrations of thyrotrophin (TSH), thyroxine (T4), triiodothyronine (T3) and reverse triiodothyronine (rT3) were measured using radioimmunoassay at 0, delivery and 24...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Certain endocrinological disturbances are assumed to exacerbate psoriasis. In this study we compared the serum thyroid hormone levels of a group of psoriasis patients with that of a control group. METHODS The total T3 (TT3), free T3 (FT3), total T4 (TT4), free T4 (FT4) and TSH levels obtained from the sera of 103 psoriatics (37 males and 66 females) and 96 controls (40 mal...

To determine the effect of ethanol on peripheral metabolism of T4, deiodinative clearance of T4 and serum concentration of T4, T3 and rT3 were measured in rats isotopically equilibrated with T4. Ethanol 8 g/Kg weight/day was given for 3 days to fasted rats and the results were compared with those normally fed or totally fasted animals. In fasted rats, deiodinative clearance of T4 and serum T4 a...

The study was designed to evaluate the potential link between low-T3 syndrome and signal-averaged ECG parameters (SAECG) in a group of hemodialyzed patients (HD-pts). 52 selected HD-pts (without relevant thyroid and cardiac diseases) were included. SAECGs were performed postdialysis together with evaluating free triiodothyronine (fT3), free thyroxine (fT4), reverse triiodothyronine (rT3), thyro...
