The effect of temperature on the action of thyroid hormone and prolactin in larvae of the salamander Hynobius retardatus
Abstract
To elucidate the environmental factors and endocrine mechanisms which are responsible for inducing neoteny in the salamander Hynobius retardatus, the effect of temperature on the growth and metamorphosis of this amphibian, as well as the actions of thyroid hormone and prolactin at low temperature, were studied. (1) The metamorphosis of larvae cultivated at 10 degrees was significantly delayed compared with that of larvae cultivated at 22 degrees, but the metamorphosis was eventually completed. At 4 degrees, metamorphosis never occurred, even after 2 years. (2) Exogenously administered thyroid hormone accelerated metamorphosis at 10 degrees or 22 degrees, but was ineffective in larvae kept at 4 degrees, whether administered by injection or immersion. (3) If a higher concentration of thyroid hormone was given by a single injection to larvae cultured at 4 degrees, an appreciable acceleration of metamorphosis was observed after transferring the larvae to 22 degrees. (4) Unlike thyroid hormone, prolactin promoted growth at 4 degrees.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
