“…It also seems the case that it was not the result of a peculiarity in the metabolism of orally administered T4, since both stable and radioactive T3 were found in the sera of patients given stable and 'I-labeled T4 intravenously, and in amounts similar to those present after oral administration. T4 (ng/ 100 ml) FIGURE (14,(27)(28)(29). Previous studies of this question in man have been few in number and contradictory in results (6,7).…”

“…However, a cause and effect relationship may be postulated between liver injury and abnormal T4 and Ts metabolism. In in vitro experimentation, perfused liver and liver tissue culture were shown to convert T4 to Ts (7,13). Reduced serum Ts values (21,22) were associated with liver cirrhosis and alcoholic hepatitis.…”

“…The contribution of this pathway to the total Ts production appears to be higher in man and sheep than in rat. T3 can also be converted from T4 in vitro by perfused rabbit liver (7) and rat heart (8), by slices of pituitary (9), kidney (10), and brain (11), and by tissue cultures of human fibroblast (12), kidney, and liver (13). Still, it is not known in what proportion the different organs contribute to the overall T3 production in the intact animal under physiological circumstances.…”

“…Many tissues are known to deiodinate thyroxine (T4)l with the resultant production of 3,5,3'-triiodothyroxine (T3) (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9), but only recently has it been appreciated that most ofthe circulating T3 is derived from extrathyroidal 5'-monodeiodination of T4 rather than from thyroidal secretion (10)(11)(12)(13). This deiodination increases the metabolic effect of T4 because T3 is more potent than T4.…”
