Effect of acute administration of triiodothyronine in chicken. Liver glycogen depletion and amino acid incorporation to proteins.
Single injections of thyroid hormone (T3) produce liver glycogen depletion in chickens. This effect cannot be suppressed by protein synthesis inhibitors and is previous to the hormone-induced increase in protein synthesis.
