Fig. 1. Serum dopamine-Bvhydroxylase (DBH) (a) and IBAT monoamine oxidase (MAO) (b) activities of rats made hypothyroid by MMI treatment (0.02% MMI solution in drinking water for three weeks) or those made hyperthyroid either with T4 (300 lJg/kgbody weight, i.p., for five days) or T3 (200 lJg/kg body weight, i.p., for five days) and their corresponding controls. Values are means ± S.E.M. of six animals in each group. *p<0.05, **p
