Factors altering thyroid hormone metabolism
Thyroxine, the major secretory product of the thyroid gland, is metabolized in the peripheral tissues by phenolic conjugation, deamination, decarboxylation, and a cascade of monodeiodinations. This br...

Examples of a combined approach using in vivo as well as in vitro methods for the assessment of prenatal toxicity are presented. The topics discussed include the analysis of the possible embryotoxic potential of valproic acid (VPA), female sex hormones, bis(tri-n-butyltin) oxide (TBTO), and acyclovir and the problem of supplementing in vitro systems with drug-metabolizing activity.
