Abstract
The percentage of intrafollicular colloid and the release and uptake of I131 was studied in young, non-pretreated chicks after stimulation with thyrotropin (TSH). When colloid started to decrease 2 hours after injection of TSH and reached a minimum at 24 hours, by 72 hours it had returned to normal. An increased release of Il31 was first seen 8-12 hours after stimulation . reaching a minimum at 12-24 hours and returning to normal at 48 hours. An increase in the uptake of I131 was first seen during the period from 24-48 hours after stimulation. The increase persisted during the 49-72 hour period with a return to normal during the 72-96 hour period.Keywords
