Developmental pattern of dopamine beta-hydroxylase induction in the adrenals of the rat. Influence of neonatal hypothyroidism

N Chami et al. J Dev Physiol. 1988 Oct.

Abstract

The extent of dopamine beta-hydroxylase induction elicited by reserpine was measured in young rats rendered hypothyroid from birth and in controls. Hypothyroidism impairs adrenal dopamine beta-hydroxylase induction in the young rat up to 50 days of age and also in the adult. In contrast, hypothyroidism has practically no effect on brainstem dopamine beta-hydroxylase induction.
