abstract：:Thyroid hormones (TH) cause an increase in spontaneous electrical activity of cultured rat skeletal myotubes. This activity is associated with tetrodotoxin (TTX)-sensitive Na channels. In addition, the initial effect of TH on Na-K pump synthesis has been shown to be TTX dependent. Accordingly, we have studied effects ...
