Norepinephrine and dopamine content in the brown adipose tissue of developing eu- and hypothyroid rats.
The norepinephrine and dopamine content of interscapular brown adipose tissue of developing rats was studied at intervals from birth to 50 days. Throughout this period, neonatal hypothyroidism is associated with a decreased norepinephrine content and with an increased dopamine content.
