[Content of hypophysiotropic, adrenotropic and thyrotropic hormones in the blood in Duchenne's progressive muscular dystrophy].
Content of hypophysis-, adrenal gland- and thyroid gland-tropic hormones was studied in blood plasma of children with primary X-linked Dushenne's myopathy at various periods of the disease, as compared with the patterns observed in healthy children of the same age. Increase in the functional activity of hypophysis and decrease -- in functions of adrenal cortex glands were observed in the muscular dystrophy; these alterations correlated with the disease steps. Relationship between the hormonal alterations and the dystrophy steps suggests the importance of the hormones in pathogenesis of the myodystrophic impairment.
