Abstract
Melatonin and TSH [thyrotropin], injected separately, caused no change of the blood thyroxine level at 30 min after treatment. Simultaneous or subsequent administration of the 2 hormones induced an increas of the level. Melatonin is capable of potentiating the acute, thyroxine mobilizing effect of TSH.
