[Value of the perifusion of fragments of rat thyroid for the dynamic study of thyroid secretion under TSH and theophylline].
With the technique of rat thyroid fragment perifusion the kinetics of T4 response to various stimuli can be studied with precision. The response is rapid and brief with theophylline and TSH, which activate membrane adenylcyclase; with the optimal concentrations, however, it is prolonged because only these concentrations can induce the secretion of a more slowly releasable pool of T4.
