“…If it is generally accepted that chronic hyperstimulation by TSH is responsible for thyroid hypertrophy and hyperplasia (Dumont, 1971) there are indications that the TSH action is not sufficient to induce these processes (Jolin et al, 1974;Isler, 1974 (Fayet et al, 1982). We have shown that TSH also enhances the proliferation of canine thyroid cells cultured in a high serum medium .…”

“…Much evidence has been provided indicating that this effect of TSH is not mediated by the adenylate cyclasecyclic AMP system (7,20,21 Although these studies clearly demonstrate that unresponsiveness to TSH extends to other metabolic effects of the hormone in addition to generation of cyclic AMP, they do not provide unequivocal evidence that such refractoriness is of physiological significance or involved in the hormonal regulation of thyroid gland function.…”

“…I,-(I that the basis for refractoriness is more complex than unresponsiveness of adenylate cyclase. In dog thyroid slices, stimulation of glucose oxidation by TSH (7) and PGE, (15) (12,18). The stimulation of glucose oxidation by acetylcholine (14) was not inhibited in slices which were refractory to TSH.…”

“…The importance of prostaglandins (PGs) in the thyroid physiology has been a controversial subject for many years but it is generally acknowledged that: (1) PGE compounds stimulate thyroid adenylate cyclase and cAMP synthesis [10,11 ] and iodine metabolism [10] and reproduce some of the effects of TSH in vitro [10] and PGI2 has similar effects on cAMP synthesis and iodine metabolism [21; (2) TSH stimulates PGI2 and PGE2 syntheses [3]. There have been proposed several hypotheses to connect these two, intending to find the role of PGs in the thyroid receptor-adenylate cyclase and cAMP system.…”
