[The efficiency of the calcitonin-transporting activity of the hemato-C-cellular system in the thyroid gland].
The efficiency of hemato-C-cellular transport of calcitonin into the systemic blood flow was evaluated by the methods of statistical modelling. The linear regression model obtained on 36 rats suggests essential predetermination of the serum concentrations of calcitonin (CT) by the intensity of incretory activity of the thyroid parafollicular epithelium: CT = 13.733+ (0.318 Nvsg; rxy = 0.830; p < 0.001 (Nvsg is numerical density of the sublemmal granules on the C-cells vascular pole). At the same time, the resulting index (CT) depends not only on Nvsg. This index is also influenced by the factors not controlled by the model, such as Hemato-C-cellular delay of calcitonin. These factors determine each certain proportion of the error of prognostication of the calcitonin serum content according to Nvsg. A covariation model CT = bNvsg was plotted in order to determine the total influence of uncontrolled factors. Its error of prognostication was subject to analysis of variance and a confidence interval of biological accessibility of endogenous calcitonin was calculated (73% < FCT < or = 100%; p > or = 0.95). The results obtained suggest the absence of essential intrathyroid loss of calcitonin at the transinterstitial and transmural stages of hemato-C-cellular hormone transfer.
