abstract：:It has been demonstrated that thyroxine deiodinating activity is present in rat pineal gland, and its activity increases significantly during the night time. We have studied whether mRNA for type II iodothyronine deiodinase is expressed in rat pineal gland and whether the nocturnal rise of pineal T4 deiodinating activ...
