1. In a group of 23 obese women the relations between some indicators of thyroid function (thyroxine-binding globuline--T4BG, triiodothyronine-binding globuline--T3BG, Achilles tendon reflex--ART) on the one hand and activities of enzymes of the energy metabolism (hexokinase--HK, triose phosphate dehydrogenase--TPDH, lactate dehydrogenase--LDH, glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase--GPDH, citrate synthease--CS, malate dehydrogenase--MDH, hydroxyacyl--COA dehydrogenase) in the quadriceps femoris muscle on the other hand were investigated. 2. Correlations were found between T4BG and TPDH, LDH and GPDH activities, between T3BG and TPDH and GPDH activities and between the value of the Achilles tendon reflex and TPDH activity. Functionally these enzymes activities are associated with glycolysis and hydrogen transport from cytoplasmatic NADH2. No correlations were found between enzymes of the aerobic metabolism incl. enzymes of fatty acid oxidation and indicators of thyroid function. 3. The results indicate a relationship between thyroid function and enzymes involved in glycolysis and hydrogen transport from cytoplasmatic NADH2. They do not suggest, however, the unequivocal conclusion that in obese women with reduced thyroid function there is a generally reduced energy supplying metabolism in skeletal muscle.
