[The effect of thyroid hormones and thyrostatic preparations on blood glycoprotein metabolism].

The author presents materials of parallel studies carried out in 322 male rats; the effect of various thyroid hormones and thyrostatics on the change in the concentration of glycoproteid fractions and of their individual carbohydrate-containing components in the blood serum was investigated. The dynamics of the changes of these tests and also their normalization depending on the applied type of the hormone or of the thyrostatic factor, the dose, the duration of administration and the emotional condition of the animals was established. On the basis of the data, obtained and literature data an attempt is made to explain the ways of the changes in the content of individual blood glycoproteins and also their relationships and the nature of appearance.
