摘要
The levels of thyroxine (T3, T4) and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) in rat serum were measured by radioimmunoassay, and also ultrastructure of the thyroid gland and adenohypophyseal cell were examined by transmission electronic microscopy (TEM) after low concentration (0. 05 mg/kg) of samarium chloride (SmCl3) administration by intraperitoneal, oral and tail intravenous routes. The results showed that the level of T4 in rat serum increased and the level of TSH unchanged by the intraperitoneal administration, and the levels of T3, T4 and TSH did not increase by the oral and tail intravenous administration. The evidences mentioned above were in accord with the morphological changes of thyroid follicular epithelial cells andadenohypophysis thyrotroph observed under electronic microscope in a sense.
