Radioimmunological techniques were utilized to probe possible changes in conformation of gonadotropins (human chorionic gonadotropin--hCG; and ovine luteinizing hormone--oLH) following chemical deglycosylation (DG-hCG and DG-LH). All antisera produced in rabbits, rats or mice contained antibodies that were specific to the deglycosylated hormones with the native hormones showing weak and non-par...

although there are many evidences regard to the relationship between serum thyroid hormones, cholesterol, triglyceride and lipoproteins in different animals, but there are limited references in dogs. the aim of this study was to determine the correlation between thyroid hormones and concentrations of serum lipid and lipoprotein profiles, and also to detect relationship between the measured para...

Objectives : The aim of this research is to examine the effects fructose-drinking on plasma levels appetite-regulating hormones insulin, leptin and ghrelin in male female rats. Methods Mature Wistar rats were divided as follows: two control groups - (CM) (CF); (FDM) (FDF), received 15% fructose solution. experiment lasted 11 weeks. At end, well lipid glucose profile assessed. Results Plasma con...

 Seasonal changes of the thyroid gland structure and hormones secretion was examined in yellowfin seabream (Acanthopagrus latus) in the northwest of Persian Gulf (Musa creek). Thyroid gland composed of follicles scattered around the ventral aorta, near the gills. Follicular cells varied according to secretion of the gland during warm and cold seasons. Thyroid hormones (Triidothyronine [...

  ABSTRACT In order to evaluate time course of changes in serum concentration of thyroid hormones, cortisol and ACTH in patients exposed to chemical weapons containing sulfur mustard, we measured serum concentrations of hormones on the first, third and fifth week following injury in 13 soldiers and compared them to the results obtained from 34 control men. Free T4 and T3 indices were decrease...
