Journal ArticleDOI

The thyroid hormone-induced tail resorption program during Xenopus laevis metamorphosis

TL;DR: A survey of the tail resorption program of Xenopus laevis provides insights into the biology of metamorphosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

A thyroid hormone-regulated gene in Xenopus laevis encodes a type III iodothyronine 5-deiodinase

TL;DR: It is reported here that the protein encoded by the XL-15 cDNA efficiently catalyzes the (inner ring) 5-deiodination of 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine with a Km value of 2 nM and is resistant to inhibition by propylthiouracil and aurothioglucose.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of salmon GTH I and GTH II radioimmunoassays

TL;DR: Radioimmunoassays (RIAs) for the measurement of two gonadotropins, GTH I and GTH II, in the plasma and pituitary of salmonid fish were developed using a rabbit antiserum to beta-subunits of chum salmon G TH I andGTH II using as standards and radioactive competitors.
Journal ArticleDOI

The regulation of thyroid hormone receptor beta genes by thyroid hormone in Xenopus laevis.

TL;DR: The mRNA level of the two Xenopus laevis thyroid hormone receptor beta (TR beta) genes is up-regulated in tadpoles and cultured cells by the addition of thyroid hormone (TH), and protein synthesis is required for up-regulation of TR beta mRNA.
