Abstract

When compared with appropriate controls, it appears as if rats treated with Amphenone “B” show a decrease in function of the hypertrophied thyroid gland as measured by oxygen consumption but a probable increase in cortisone-like function of the hypertrophied adrenal gland as measured by electroshock seizure threshold, thymus involution, reaction to 24-hour fast? and histological study of the adrenal.
