Abstract

Exposure of rats to 6 ± 2°C for 3 h caused an increased in peroxidase activity (55%) and tyrosine iodinase activity (40%) of the submandibulary glands. Thiocyanate, hydrogen peroxide and formation of triiodide from iodide were also elevated under the same conditions. Administration of α-receptor blockers and indomethacin prevented the rise of peroxidase activity during cold stress whereas β -receptor blockers were less effective.
