  • Title: Effect of thyroid hormones on the malic enzyme activity in rat brain during development.
    Author: Díez-Guerra J, Aragón MC, Giménez C, Valdivieso F.
    Journal: Dev Neurosci; 1981; 4(2):130-3. PubMed ID: 7227226.
    Abstract:
    Changes in the development pattern of cytoplasmic and mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase (decarboxylating; NADP+) activity in the brain of hypothyroid rats and the effect of triiodothyronine on the enzyme activity have been investigated. Hypothyroid rats showed lower malate dehydrogenase activity than controls during the suckling period. Results suggest that thyroid hormones promote the development of malic enzyme in the brain.
