IN VIVO BIOGENESIS OF THYROID HORMONE IN THE GUINEA PIG
The uptake and organlc binding of I/sup 131/ by the guinea pig thyroid were studied as ordinates of time following administration of the tracer by means of electrophoretic, radioautographic, and chromatographic techniques. Similar techniques were used to ascertain the nature of the iodinated compounds in the gland at the time of maximal uptake. Results indicate that the iodine content of the diet is an important factor in experiments of the type described. Preliminary data are reported on the biogenesis of thyroid hormone. (C.H.)
