[Thyroid-induced hyperthyroidism Yin-deficiency model of rats].

OBJECTIVE: To establish a rat model of hyperthyroidism Yin-deficiency. METHODS: SD rats separate male and female were randomly divided into four groups, a total of eight groups, each with six. The first group for the control group, 2 to 4 for the experimental drug-treated group, including thyroid-low, medium and high-dose group. In addition to the first group lavage volume of saline, the other groups were given the concentration of 2. 5, 5, 10 mg/kg-saline suspension of the thyroid. Once a day, 30 days for delivery. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, with the exception of Group 4 female rats serum T3, T4, FT3, FT4 values were significantly higher (P < 0.01), serum TSH was significantly lower (P < 0.05), the other treatment groups had different values no significant difference (P > 0.05). Group 4 that female rats modeling was success. CONCLUSION: Administration of thyroid-Suspension 10 mg/ kg for 30 d, female rats hyperthyroidism Yin-deficiency rat model is success.
