Overlap of concanavalin-A and insulin imprinting in rat thymocytes
Acta Physiologica Hungarica
|January 1, 1990
The thymocytic insulin binding in rats treated with the hormone neonatally on a single occasion increased considerably compared to the untreated control by 3 months of age. Treatment with Concanavalin-A also accounted for an increase in adult insulin binding, whereas neonatal treatment with insulin did not alter the binding relations of Concanavalin-A in adulthood.
