[The effect of experimental hyperthyroidism on the thermoregulating activity of the motor units in rat skeletal muscles]. 1995

L V Sorokina

The T3 thyroid hormone was shown to change the motor unit activity in the thermoregulatory tonus from 13 to 22/sec in intact rats to 9 to 11/sec in the hyperthyroid ones. This data corresponds to that obtained in rats adapted to cold and suggests participation of thyroid hormones in cold adaptation.
