Effects of vitamin E and pinoline on retinal lipid peroxidation. Clin Exp Optom 2021; 87:171-4. [PMID: 15186208 DOI: 10.1111/j.1444-0938.2004.tb03170.x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2003] [Revised: 03/15/2004] [Accepted: 03/26/2004] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pinoline is a pineal indoleamine naturally found in the retina. This study compared the effects of pinoline and vitamin E on the copper (I)-induced retinal lipid peroxidation (LPO). METHODS Porcine retinal homogenates were mixed with 120 micro M copper (I) solution. The mixtures were co-incubated with various concentrations of pinoline or trolox (water-soluble vitamin E analogue) at 37 degrees Centigrade for 60 minutes. The amounts of malondialdehyde (MDA) and protein were assayed to quantify the LPO. RESULTS Copper (I) ions significantly increased the MDA concentration in the retinal homogenates (p < 0.0007). Both pinoline and trolox significantly suppressed MDA in a dose-dependent manner (p < 0.0001) and their effects were significantly different (p = 0.004). The concentrations that inhibited 50 per cent of LPO were 0.24 mM and 0.68 mM for pinoline and trolox, respectively. DISCUSSION Pinoline suppressed the LPO at a potency of 2.8 times compared with trolox. The results support an anti-oxidative role for pinoline in the retina. Further study is required to characterise the pharmacological potency of pinoline in vivo.

Comparative mammalian cell cytotoxicity of wastewater with elevated bromide and iodide after chlorination, chloramination, or ozonation. J Environ Sci (China) 2017; 58:296-301. [PMID: 28774620 DOI: 10.1016/j.jes.2017.03.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2017] [Revised: 03/11/2017] [Accepted: 03/16/2017] [Indexed: 06/07/2023]
Abstract
Recycling wastewater is becoming more common as communities around the world try to better control their water resources against an increased frequency of either prolonged droughts or intense flooding. For communities in coastal areas, wastewaters may contain elevated levels of bromide (Br-) and iodide (I-) from seawater intrusion or high mineral content of source waters. Disinfection of such wastewater is mandatory to prevent the spread of pathogens, however little is known about the toxicity of wastewater after disinfection in the presence of Br- and I-. In this study we compared the induction of chronic cytotoxicity in mammalian cells in samples of municipal secondary wastewater effluent amended with elevated levels of Br-/I- after disinfection by chlorine, chloramines or ozone to identify which disinfection process generated wastewater with the lowest level of adverse biological response. Chlorination increased mammalian cell cytotoxicity by 5 times as compared to non-disinfected controls. Chloramination produced disinfected wastewater that expressed 6.3 times more cytotoxicity than the non-disinfected controls and was 1.3 times more cytotoxic than the chlorinated samples. Ozonation produced wastewater with cytotoxicity comparable to the non-disinfected controls and was at least 4 times less cytotoxic than the chlorine disinfected wastewaters. These results indicate that compared to chlorination and chloramination, ozonation of wastewater with high Br-/I- levels yielded the lowest mammalian cell cytotoxicity, suggesting its potential as a more favorable method to disinfect wastewater with minimizing the biological toxicity in mind.

Potential risk of acute toxicity induced by AgI cloud seeding on soil and freshwater biota. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2016; 133:433-441. [PMID: 27517140 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2016.06.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2015] [Revised: 05/31/2016] [Accepted: 06/20/2016] [Indexed: 06/06/2023]
Abstract
Silver iodide is one of the most common nucleating materials used in cloud seeding. Previous cloud seeding studies have concluded that AgI is not practically bioavailable in the environment but instead remains in soils and sediments such that the free Ag amounts are likely too low to induce a toxicological effect. However, none of these studies has considered the continued use of this practice on the same geographical areas and thus the potential cumulative effect of environmental AgI. The aim of this study is to assess the risk of acute toxicity caused by AgI exposure under laboratory conditions at the concentration expected in the environment after repeated treatments on selected soil and aquatic biota. To achieve the aims, the viability of soil bacteria Bacillus cereus and Pseudomonas stutzeri and the survival of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans exposed to different silver iodide concentrations have been evaluated. Freshwater green algae Dictyosphaerium chlorelloides and cyanobacteria Microcystis aeruginosa were exposed to silver iodide in culture medium, and their cell viability and photosynthetic activity were evaluated. Additionally, BOD5 exertion and the Microtox® toxicity test were included in the battery of toxicological assays. Both tests exhibited a moderate AgI adverse effect at the highest concentration (12.5µM) tested. However, AgI concentrations below 2.5µM increased BOD5. Although no impact on the growth and survival endpoints in the soil worm C. elegans was recorded after AgI exposures, a moderate decrease in cell viability was found for both of the assessed soil bacterial strains at the studied concentrations. Comparison between the studied species showed that the cyanobacteria were more sensitive than green algae. Exposure to AgI at 0.43μM, the reference value used in monitoring environmental impact, induced a significant decrease in photosynthetic activity that is primarily associated with the respiration (80% inhibition) and, to a lesser extent, the net photosynthesis (40% inhibition) in both strains of phytoplankton and a moderate decrease in soil bacteria viability. These results suggest that AgI from cloud seeding may moderately affect biota living in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems if cloud seeding is repeatedly applied in a specific area and large amounts of seeding materials accumulate in the environment.

Effects of Excess Fluoride and Iodide on Thyroid Function and Morphology. Biol Trace Elem Res 2016; 170:382-9.

Abstract
Exposure to high levels of iodide in Cangzhou, Shandong Province, China has been associated with increased incidence of thyroid disease; however, whether fluoride can affect the thyroid remains controversial. To investigate the effects of excess fluoride, we evaluated thyroid gland structure and function in rats exposed to fluoride and iodide, either alone or in combination. Five-week-old Wistar rats (n = 160 total) were randomly divided into eight groups: three groups that were given excess fluoride (15, 30, or 60 ppm F); one group given excess iodide (1200 μg/L I); three groups given excess iodide plus fluoride (1200 μg/L I plus 15, 30, or 60 ppm F); and one control group. The serum concentrations of the thyroid hormones TT3 and TT4 on day 150 were significantly reduced for certain fluoride groups; however, no significant differences were observed in concentrations for the pituitary hormone TSH among any groups. Hematoxylin and eosin staining revealed that iodide causes an increase in the areas of the colloid lumens and a decrease in the diameters of epithelial cells and nuclei; however, fluoride causes an increase in nuclear diameters. The damage to follicular epithelial cells upon fluoride or iodide treatment was easily observed by transmission electron microscopy, but the effects were most dramatic upon treatment with both fluoride and iodide. These results suggest that iodide causes the most damage but that fluoride can promote specific changes in the function and morphology of the thyroid, either alone or in combination with iodide.

Abstract
Chlorination followed by chloramination can be used to mitigate the formation of potentially toxic iodinated disinfection byproducts (I-DBPs) while controlling the formation of regulated chloro-bromo-DBPs (Cl-/Br-DBPs). Water samples containing dissolved organic matter (DOM) isolates were subjected to 3 disinfection scenarios: NH2Cl, prechlorination followed by ammonia addition, and HOCl alone. A theoretical cytotoxicity evaluation was carried out based on the trihalomethanes (THMs) formed. This study demonstrates that the presence of bromide not only enhances the yield and rate of iodate formation, it also increases the formation of brominated I-THM precursors. A shift in the speciation from CHCl2I to the more toxic CHBr2I, as well as increased iodine incorporation in THMs, was observed in the presence of bromide. For low bromide concentrations, a decrease in I-THM formation and theoretical cytotoxicity was achieved only for high prechlorination times, while for high bromide concentrations, a short prechlorination time enabled the full conversion of iodide to iodate. For low DOM concentrations or DOM with low reactivity, Br-/I-THMs were preferentially formed for short prechlorination times, inducing high cytotoxicity. However, for high chlorine exposures, the cytotoxicity induced by the formation of regulated THMs might outweigh the benefit of I-THM mitigation. For high DOM concentrations or DOM with higher reactivity, mixed I-THMs were formed together with high concentrations of regulated THMs. In this case, based on the cytotoxicity of the THMs formed, the use of NH2Cl is recommended.

The BLI-3/TSP-15/DOXA-1 dual oxidase complex is required for iodide toxicity in Caenorhabditis elegans. G3 (BETHESDA, MD.) 2014; 5:195-203.

Abstract
Iodine is an essential trace element for life. Iodide deficiency can lead to defective biosynthesis of thyroid hormones and is a major cause of hypothyroidism and mental retardation. Excess iodide intake, however, has been linked to different thyroidal diseases. How excess iodide causes harmful effects is not well understood. Here, we found that the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans exhibits developmental arrest and other pleiotropic defects when exposed to excess iodide. To identify the responsible genes, we performed a forward genetic screen and isolated 12 mutants that can survive in excess iodide. These mutants define at least four genes, two of which we identified as bli-3 and tsp-15. bli-3 encodes the C. elegans ortholog of the mammalian dual oxidase DUOX1 and tsp-15 encodes the tetraspanin protein TSP-15, which was previously shown to interact with BLI-3. The C. elegans dual oxidase maturation factor DOXA-1 is also required for the arresting effect of excess iodide. Finally, we detected a dramatically increased biogenesis of reactive oxygen species in animals treated with excess iodide, and this effect can be partially suppressed by bli-3 and tsp-15 mutations. We propose that the BLI-3/TSP-15/DOXA-1 dual oxidase complex is required for the toxic pleiotropic effects of excess iodide.

Abstract
Disinfectants inactivate pathogens in source water; however, they also react with organic matter and bromide/iodide to form disinfection byproducts (DBPs). Although only a few DBP classes have been systematically analyzed for toxicity, iodinated and brominated DBPs tend to be the most toxic. The objectives of this research were (1) to determine if monochloramine (NH2Cl) disinfection generated drinking water with less toxicity than water disinfected with free chlorine (HOCl) and (2) to determine the impact of added bromide and iodide in conjunction with HOCl or NH2Cl disinfection on mammalian cell cytotoxicity and genomic DNA damage induction. Water disinfected with chlorine was less cytotoxic but more genotoxic than water disinfected with chloramine. For both disinfectants, the addition of Br(-) and I(-) increased cytotoxicity and genotoxicity with a greater response observed with NH2Cl disinfection. Both cytotoxicity and genotoxicity were highly correlated with TOBr and TOI. However, toxicity was weakly and inversely correlated with TOCl. Thus, the forcing agents for cytotoxicity and genotoxicity were the generation of brominated and iodinated DBPs rather than the formation of chlorinated DBPs. Disinfection practices need careful consideration especially when using source waters containing elevated bromide and iodide.

Abstract
An occurrence study was conducted to measure five iodo-acids (iodoacetic acid, bromoiodoacetic acid, (Z)-3-bromo-3-iodo-propenoic acid, (E)-3-bromo-3-iodo-propenoic acid, and (E)-2-iodo-3-methylbutenedioic acid) and two iodo-trihalomethanes (iodo-THMs), (dichloroiodomethane and bromochloroiodomethane) in chloraminated and chlorinated drinking waters from 23 cities in the United States and Canada. Since iodoacetic acid was previouslyfound to be genotoxic in mammalian cells, the iodo-acids and iodo-THMs were analyzed for toxicity. A gas chromatography (GC)/negative chemical ionization-mass spectrometry (MS) method was developed to measure the iodo-acids; iodo-THMs were measured using GC/high resolution electron ionization-MS with isotope dilution. The iodo-acids and iodo-THMs were found in waters from most plants, at maximum levels of 1.7 microg/L (iodoacetic acid), 1.4 microg/L (bromoiodoacetic acid), 0.50 microg/L ((Z)-3-bromo-3-iodopropenoic acid), 0.28 microg/L ((E)-3-bromo-3-iodopropenoic acid), 0.58 microg/L ((E)-2-iodo-3-methylbutenedioic acid), 10.2 microg/L (bromochloroiodomethane), and 7.9 microg/L (dichloroiodomethane). Iodo-acids and iodo-THMs were highest at plants with short free chlorine contact times (< 1 min), and were lowest at a chlorine-only plant or at plants with long free chlorine contact times (> 45 min). Iodide levels in source waters ranged from 0.4 to 104.2 microg/L (when detected), but there was not a consistent correlation between bromide and iodide. The rank order for mammalian cell chronic cytotoxicity of the compounds measured in this study, plus other iodinated compounds, was iodoacetic acid > (E)-3-bromo-2-iodopropenoic acid > iodoform > (E)-3-bromo-3-iodo-propenoic acid > (Z)-3-bromo-3-iodo-propenoic acid > diiodoacetic acid > bromoiodoacetic acid > (E)-2-iodo-3-methylbutenedioic acid > bromodiiodomethane > dibromoiodomethane > bromochloroiodomethane approximately chlorodiiodomethane > dichloroiodomethane. With the exception of iodoform, the iodo-THMs were much less cytotoxic than the iodo-acids. Of the 13 compounds analyzed, 7 were genotoxic; their rank order was iodoacetic acid >> diiodoacetic acid > chlorodiiodomethane > bromoiodoacetic acid > E-2-iodo-3-methylbutenedioic acid > (E)-3-bromo-3-iodo-propenoic acid > (E)-3-bromo-2-iodopropenoic acid. In general, compounds that contain an iodo-group have enhanced mammalian cell cytotoxicity and genotoxicity as compared to their brominated and chlorinated analogues.

Abstract
Organic iodides have been shown to induce thyroid hypertrophy and increase alterations in colloid in rats, although the mechanism involved in this toxicity is unclear. To evaluate the effect that free iodide has on thyroid toxicity, we exposed rats for 2 weeks by daily gavage to sodium iodide (NaI). To compare the effects of compounds with alternative mechanisms (increased thyroid hormone metabolism and decreased thyroid hormone synthesis, respectively), we also examined phenobarbital (PB) and propylthiouracil (PTU) as model thyroid toxicants. Follicular cell hypertrophy and pale-staining colloid were present in thyroid glands from PB-treated rats, and more severe hypertrophy/colloid changes along with diffuse hyperplasia were present in thyroid glands from PTU-treated rats. In PB- and PTU-treated rats, thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels were significantly elevated, and both thyroxine and triiodothyronine hormone levels were significantly decreased. PB induced hepatic uridine diphosphate-glucuronyltransferase (UDPGT) activity almost 2-fold, whereas PTU reduced hepatic 5 -deiodinase I (5 -DI) activity to < 10% of control in support of previous reports regarding the mechanism of action of each chemical. NaI also significantly altered liver weights and UDPGT activity but did not affect thyroid hormone levels or thyroid pathology. Thyroid gene expression analyses using Affymetrix U34A GeneChips, a regularized t-test, and Gene Map Annotator and Pathway Profiler demonstrated significant changes in rhodopsin-like G-protein-coupled receptor transcripts from all chemicals tested. NaI demonstrated dose-dependent changes in multiple oxidative stress-related genes, as also determined by principal component and linear regression analyses. Differential transcript profiles, possibly relevant to rodent follicular cell tumor outcomes, were observed in rats exposed to PB and PTU, including genes involved in Wnt signaling and ribosomal protein expression.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the cytotoxicity of iontophoresis treatment using direct current (DC) with or without antibacterial agents. The following antibacterial agents were used: diamine silver fluoride (AgF); sodium fluoride (NaF); and iodine zinc iodide (JJZ). The cytotoxic activity of DC with or without antibacterial agents against human polymorphonuclear cells (PMNs) was evaluated by the 3-[4, 5- dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. It was noted that DC (2 mA) killed PMNs in a time-dependent manner and the cytotoxicity was enhanced when DC was combined with antibacterial agents. The toxic effect of antibacterial agents was in the order: AgF>JJZ>NaF. The death of PMNs by DC was evaluated by flow cytometry using annexin V-FITC/propidium iodide staining. DC appeared to induce necrosis rather than apoptosis of PMNs. These results suggest that iontophoresis treatment using DC and antibacterial agents may induce necrotic cytotoxicity in host cells around periapical lesions.

Abstract
The experiments on dietary intoxication of rats by HgI2 or Hg(NO3)2 show that the activities of lysosomal proteinase cathepsin B and cytosolic Ca(2+)-activated proteinases (calpains I and II) in the liver and kidney depend on the mercury salt solubility and the exposure duration. Mercury iodide and nitrate contribute more to inhibiting cathepsin B and calpains activities in the above tissues, respectively.

Abstract
Silver iodide was evaluated for mutagenicity in the Ames/microsome test (strains TA 1535, TA 102, TA 97, and TA 98) and for the ability to induce Sister Chromatid Exchanges (SCE) in human cultured lymphocytes and in P388 lymphocytic leukemia cells cultured in the mouse peritoneal cavity. From the cytogenetic in vitro studies, it was observed that silver iodide, either in acetone solutions or as a suspension with polyacrilamide, scarcely causes a doubling effect on SCEs at nearly toxic concentrations (1 microg/ml). Such a doubling effect by silver iodide on SCEs in P388 leukemia cells in vivo was not achieved even after using 100 microg/g mouse body weight. In the Ames/microsome test actually a doubling effect on revertants was only isolately achieved with 30 microg/ml in TA 102 (S9-) and at 150 microg/ml in TA 97 (S9+) doses, which appear to be nearly toxic for bacteria.

Abstract
In order to investigate whether the cytotoxic effect of iodide observed in the thyroid gland represented an apoptotic phenomenon, in vitro experiments were performed using the FRTL-5 thyroid cell line and dog thyrocytes in primary culture. These cells were exposed to iodide under various incubation conditions. Apoptosis was assessed through the analysis of DNA breakdown, i.e. the electrophoresis of internucleosomal DNA fragments generating a typical "ladder" and quantification of prelabelled DNA cleavage products. The FRTL-5 cells appeared to be sensitive only to high doses of iodide, far in excess of physiological levels. They exhibited the different characteristics of two different cell death phenomena: apoptosis and necrosis. The toxicity of iodide appeared to be partially relieved by anti-thyroid agents. This effect constitutes an additional example of the general paradigm of iodide action through oxidized intermediates. In contrast dog thyrocytes in primary culture did not appear to be sensitive to iodide under similar incubation conditions; species differences and/or types of culture could account for these discrepant effects.

Abstract
Iodine is a natural mineral essential for good health and highly concentrated in thyroid tissue. It is used for diagnostic purposes as well as for therapeutic means. The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of a single dose of iodine administration and multiple doses of the drug for a short and long term therapy on the periodontium. Sixty male albino rats were participated in the study. Twenty rats were used as a control group, the rest of the animals were divided into two experimental groups. The first group received single dose (diagnostic dose) of iodine. The second experimental group was divided into two subgroups. The first subgroup received multiple doses of iodine for a short period of 15 days, while the second subgroup received the same multiple doses for one month. Three rats of the control group and four of each experimental group were sacrificed at the end of the first, second, third and fourth weeks from the beginning of the study. Maxillary and mandibular specimens were dissected, stained with H. & E. and examined microscopically. The results of the study revealed that single diagnostic dose of iodine has no effect on the periodontium while multiple doses of the drug used for therapeutic purposes caused degeneration of periodontal tissues. The effect increased when the drug is used for a long period, the effect of the drug may be related to the direct effect of iodine concentrated in saliva on living cells or indirectly through the effect of xerostomia induced by the drug.

Abstract
The effect of 3,4,5,6-tetrachloro-2',4',5',7'-tetraiodo-fluorescein sodium salt (Rose Bengal B or FD&C Red No. 105, molecular weight 1017.6) on the thyroid of rats treated with N-bis(2-hydroxypropyl)-nitrosamine (DHPN) and iodine-deficient (I-def) diet is studied. Six-week-old male F344 rats were divided into seven groups (20 each) and given a single subcutaneous injection of DHPN (2800 mg/kg body wt.). From week 2 to 20, I-def diet was given in combination with either FR105 (1.25, 5.0, or 20 mg/l) or potassium iodide (KI, 12.5, 50.0 or 200 micrograms/l) in drinking water. As a result, an amount of 1.25 mg/l of FR105 was slightly more effective than 200 micrograms/l of KI in terms of inhibition of the effect of I-def diet on thyroid weight, morphology, thyroid-related hormones and thyroid tumor development. It was calculated that 1 mumol/l of FR105 was slightly more potent than 1 mumol/l of iodide ion. As each FR105 molecule has four iodide residues, at least 25% of total iodide residues were calculated to be utilized by the rats given I-def diet.

Abstract
Plasma concentrations of neomycin were measured after intrauterine infusion of 3.3 mg/kg neomycin sulphate. Mares infected two hours previously with an intra-uterine infusion of beta-haemolytic streptococci absorbed approximately 12 per cent of the neomycin in both the oestrous and the luteal phases of the cycle. Normal mares in oestrus absorbed 6 per cent of the neomycin infused and luteal mares absorbed 56 per cent. In infected mares the peak plasma concentrations occurred two hours after neomycin infusion, earlier than in healthy mares. Cervical flushings after neomycin infusion in infected luteal mares revealed an increased reflux of neomycin when compared with healthy mares. Prior infusion of 30 ml of 10 per cent Lugol's iodine into the uterus resulted in 31 per cent of neomycin being absorbed by oestrous mares and 64 per cent by mares in the luteal phase. Peak plasma concentrations occurred 30 minutes after infusion in both phases. In the luteal phase the mares' absorption of neomycin may have been maximal.

Abstract
Recent data suggest that eosinophils may cause lung injury. To determine if the eosinophil peroxidase (EPO)-hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-halide system could mediate this injury, we added human EPO, H2O2 (or glucose and glucose oxidase as a continuous source of H2O2), and various halides to monolayers of 51Cr-labeled human A549 and rat type II pneumocytes. Cell lysis was measured as soluble 51Cr release. In initial experiments, EPO in solution did not induce lysis under these conditions. Therefore, in subsequent experiments, pneumocytes were preincubated with EPO for 15 minutes, washed to remove unbound enzyme, and then glucose, glucose oxidase, and the halides were added. EPO alone was not injurious, nor was the addition of glucose and glucose oxidase in the absence of EPO. In contrast, the combined addition of EPO, glucose, glucose oxidase, and chloride produced marked target-cell lysis. This effect was time and EPO dose dependent and was enhanced by the addition of iodide. Catalase and azide substantially inhibited the lysis produced by the EPO-H2O2-halide system, suggesting that EPO-catalyzed products of halide oxidation mediated this form of injury. Finally, the addition of eosinophil major basic protein at 10(-5) mol/L to EPO-coated pneumocytes incubated with glucose, glucose oxidase, and halides failed to enhance or inhibit lysis. We hypothesize that the EPO-H2O2-halide system may injure the lung in asthma and eosinophilic pulmonary syndromes.

Abstract
Mycobacterium leprae are killed by myeloperoxidase (or eosinophil peroxidase), H2O2, and a halide, thus suggesting a mechanism for their destruction by peroxidase-containing phagocytes.

Abstract
Forty Holstein-Friesian heifer calves were divided into four groups of ten each and dosed orally with ethylenediamine dihydriodide to provide 0, 50, 250, or 1,250 mg of iodide/animal each day. Five calves in each group were given thyrotropin-releasing hormone at 4-week intervals. Two calves given 1,250 mg of iodide (active ingredient)/day died by 70 days and had severe bronchopneumonia. At 6 months, the remaining 38 calves were killed. Pneumonia was evident in calves given iodide, with the severity apparently dose-related. Squamous metaplasia of tracheal epithelium occurred in all calves given 1,250 mg of iodide. Similar changes were seen in the interlobular duct of the parotid gland of two calves given 1,250 mg of iodide and in one calf given 250 mg. Scanning electron microscopy revealed changes in the tracheal mucosa, the severity of which were related to the dose of iodide fed. Changes in the thyroid glands of calves given 1,250 mg of iodide included large follicles, flat epithelium, and large amounts of colloid. In calves given 1,250 mg of iodide plus thyrotropin-releasing hormone, the histologic features of the thyroid glands were similar to controls. Serum vitamin A concentrations were less in calves given 1,250 mg of iodide relative to that of control calves. In general, calves were able to compensate fpr excessive dietary iodide after an initial period of an apparent increased susceptibility to respiratory tract infection.

Abstract
It was established in experiments on Wistar rats that oral methyl mercuric iodide at doses of 0.85, 0.64, 0.42 and 0.21 mg/kg daily exerts no teratogenic or embryotoxic action on the progeny. However, administration of methyl mercuric iodide at doses of 0.85 and 0.64 mg/kg produced in females a significant decrease in the SH-group content in renal and cerebral tissues, in the activity of acetylcholine esterase in the cerebellum (by 18-48%) and a rise in the activity of glucose-6-phosphatase in the kidneys (by 48-70%). The doses of 0.42 and 0.21 mg/kg administered at various periods of pregnancy, did not exert any effect on the body of females under experimental conditions. These findings are supported to a certain measure by the results of examination of a 2-month progeny of the animals given 0.21 mg/kg methyl mercuric iodide daily. The biochemical parameters of these animals did not differ from those of the control ones.
