Abstract
The effects of thyroid hormone on lactase activities were studied in vitro organ culture of fetal rat intestine. Triiodothyronine inhibited lactase activities regardless the presence of dexamethasone. Also triiodothyronine decreased lactase activities when added after dexamethasone increased lactase activities. Our results suggest that thyroid hormone may have a role in the maturational changes of lactase activities during weaning.
