Abstrakt: The effect of potassium iodide and perchlorate was studied on parameters characterizing the secretion of thyroid hormones: the cyclic AMP level in the thyroid gland tissue and the number of intracellular colloid drops during stimulation with thyroid hormones. Excess of iodide was shown to depress these indices whereas perchlorate prevented the inhibitory effect of iodide. The results support the view that the adenylate-cyclase system of the thyroid gland is sensitive to the organic iodine concentration. Excess of iodide evidently reduces the ability of perchlorate to affect its concentration in the gland, so that the process of organification of iodine and the secretion of thyroid hormones are maintained at the optimal level.
