title: Thymosin fails to reconstitute normal estradiol levels into neonatally thymectomized rats.
abstract: Neonatal thymectomy into female rats reduced estradiol plasmatic levels during the first 60 days. This disturbance was not corrected by thymosin opotherapy. Comparison with male rats and testosterone disturbance was discussed.
