Abstract
The screening assay to determine thyreotropic properties of aqueous extracts of medicinal plants, such as Fucus vesiculosus, Cetraria islandica, Lycopus europaeus, Genista tinctoria and Lemna minor was conducted. Experiments were carried out in intact animals – rats. It was determined, that the effect of all investigated objects on the synthetic function of the thyroid gland (formation of thyroid hormones – thyroxine and triiodothyronine) was evident with different rate and type of action: as thyreostatic and thyroid-stimulating. The investigations are continuing.
