[Functional activity of the thyroid gland after immunization with the homologous tissue of the pancreas].
An insufficiency of the insular apparatus of the pancreas developed in rabbits in response to the immunization with a homologous tissue of the pancreas. A correlation existed between the thyroid gland function and the endocrine portion of the pancreas. The results of study of the functional activity of the thyroid gland under conditions of immunization with a homologous tissue of the pancreas are presented. The data obtained in the course of the experiment pointed to the changes in the thyroid gland characteristic of the intensification of its function: the height of the epithelium increased, the diametre of the follicles and the index of the colloid accumulation diminished. Experimental results confirmed the literature data on the existence of an inverse relationship between the functional activity of the insular apparatus of the pancreas and the thyroid gland function.
