Glucocorticoids and thyroid hormones control many aspects of fetal development. Using immunohistochemistry and stereology, in the present study we investigated the effects of dexamethasone (Dx) administration during pregnancy on pituitary TSH cells of 19-day-old fetuses. The results showed that maternal Dx administration inhibited multiplication of TSH cells in 19-day-old fetuses.
