title: [Deiodination in the kidney and thyroid function)].
abstract: In homogenate supernatants of kidneys of male rats the extent of deiodination of L-diiodotyrosine (L-DJT) and L-thyroxine (L-T4) was investigated in dependence on the thyroid function (hypo- and hyperthyroidized) and also in dependence on age. In rats hypothyroidized by loading with Methylthiouracil (MTU) or Methimazol (MMI) the deiodination for L-DJT and L-T4 was significantly reduced, in rats loaded with 40 mug T4 sc. for 10 days, the deiodination was significantly enhanced compared with untreated control animals. With advancing age (6 weeks, 3 or 12 month) the deiodination activity is highly significantly reduced. The results underline relations between thyroid gland function and deiodination activity in kidney.
