Popis: Free thyroxine levels and thyroxine binding proteins have been studied in male adolescents and compared to the values observed in other groups of subjects. Free T4 concentration is decreased in adolescents as compared to adults, and particularly in the late stage of sexual maturation. TBPA maximal binding capacity and the blood concentration of TBPA are reduced at the beginning of puberty.
