Basal serum thyroxine (T4) concentration and the thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) stimulation test were used to assess thyroid function in 36 critically ill cats examined between July 1996 and October 1998. Of the 36 cats, hyperthyroidism (as underlying or complicating disease) was suspected in...

Mediation by Ca2+ of thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) action on the prolactin (PRL) promoter was investigated by both additivity and pharmacological studies, and by techniques that probe more gene-proximal events. TRH required the presence of Ca2+ in the medium for stimulation of transient...
