Influence of thyroxine and its precursors on in vitro lysis of tadpole tail.
Exposure of Rana arvalis tail tips to thyroxine and its precursors in vitro stimulated the tail regression. The effect of thyroxine and triiodothyronine was more intense. However, diiodo- and monoiodotyrosine also could significantly stimulate the tail lysis.
