Thyroid hormones are involved in 5′-nucleotidase modulation in soluble fraction of cardiac tissue

To investigate the role of TH (thyroid hormones) in 5′-nucleotidase activity and expression in cardiac soluble fraction (SF). Male Wistar rats received daily injections of T4 (10, 25 or 50μg T4/100g body weight) for 14days to develop a hyperthyroidism condition. Thyroidectomy was performed in other...

Zusammenfassung:To investigate the role of TH (thyroid hormones) in 5′-nucleotidase activity and expression in cardiac soluble fraction (SF). Male Wistar rats received daily injections of T4 (10, 25 or 50μg T4/100g body weight) for 14days to develop a hyperthyroidism condition. Thyroidectomy was performed in other animals to mimic hypothyroidism, and 14days after surgery they were submitted to TH replacement therapy. T4 reduced the 5′-nucleotidase activity (T4-25, P
