Contribution to the Study of Phosphate Uptake (P$sup 32$) at the Level of the Thyroid, The Suprarenals, and Testicles after Administration of Epiphysis Hormone; CONTRIBUTION A L'ETUDE DE LA PHOSPHOCAPTATION (P$sup 52$) AU NIVEAU DE LA THYROIDE DES SURRENALES ET DES TESTICULES APRES ADMINISTRATION DE L'EPIPHYSE-HORMONE

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4287378
The phosphorus uptake by several endocrine glands after the administration of epiphysis hormone was studied by a tracer technique. After ten days of daily injections of the hormone into male albino rats, the rats received an injection of P/sup 32/. The hormone was again given 6, 12, and 18 hours after the P/sup 32/ injection. Some animals were killed 8 hours after the administration of phosphorus and the rest after 24 hours. The radioactivity of the epiphysis, hypophysis, thyroid, suprarenals, testicles, and seminal vesicles was determined. The results showed a functional inhibition of the phosphorus uptake in the thyroid, suprarenals, testicles, and seminal vesicles. A decrease in the phosphorus uptake by the hypophysis was also observed. (J.S.R.)
