Effects of thyroid hormone deficiency on mice selected for increased and decreased body weight and fatness.

Genetical research - 1 Aug 1998

Bünger L, Wallace H, Bishop J O, Hastings I M, Hill W G

Abstract excerpt

A study was undertaken to test whether the elimination of metabolic pathways strongly involved in growth and fatness, comprising thyroid hormones (TH) and growth hormone (GH), is responsible for a substantial part of the genetic change produced by selection. Lines used in this study have been selected for about 50 generations for high (PH) and low (PL) body weight at 10 weeks and for high (F) and low fat content...
