Single and Multiple Selenium-Zinc-Iodine Deficiencies Affect Rat Thyroid Metabolism and Ultrastructure

Abstract: This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of single and combined deficiencies of Se, Zn and I on thyroid function in rats. Rats were fed amino acid-based diets for 6 wk starting from weaning. The diets contained either low or adequate amounts of these minerals. In addition to the control and control pair-fed groups, seven experimental groups were formed: Se deficient (Se-); I deficient (I-); Zn deficient (Zn-); Se and I deficient (Se-I-); Zn and I deficient (Zn-I-); Se and Zn deficient (Se-Zn); and Se, … Show more

“…Zinc also may play important roles in thyroid metabolism. Thus, its low (Gupta et al, 1997;Ruz et al, 1999) or excessive (Dean et al, 1991) levels may cause numerous abnormalities. Therefore, it has been emphasised that excessive dietary zinc intake re-Acta Veterinaria Hungarica 50, 2002 sulted in disturbances in serum thyroid hormone levels in man (Miyamoto et al, 1991) and animals (Dean et al, 1991).…”
