title: A histochemical demonstration of the Na+ + K+-ATPase activity in the thyroid and the effect of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (c-AMP).
abstract: With a suitable modification of the Farquhar and Palade technique the Na+ + K+-ATPase activity in guinea-pig thyroid is demonstrated. The addition of c-AMP (5 X 10(-6) M or 1.5 X 10(-5) M) to the incubation media produced an apparent intensification of the Na+ + K+ -ATPase activity in the thyroid.
