Catecholamine-thyroid hormone interactions: II. Thyroid hormone and platelet MAO activity in patients with thyroid disorders.

چکیده
Platelet monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity and serum thyroxine indices were determined in 62 children and adolescents currently undergoing medical treatment for various thyroid disorders. The platelet MAO activity of these patients was similar to that of control and contrast groups previously reported, and there were no differences when patients were grouped according to specific thyroid disorders. Estimated free thyroxine and total thyroxine levels were generally in the upper normal or slightly elevated range and were not significantly related to MAO activity.
