Injection of rabbits with arsanil-sulfanil-thyroglobulin without adjuvant resulted in the production of hemagglutinating and precipitating antibody to native thyroglobulin and thyroiditis. Following a latent period of 1 month, these same rabbits responded to an injection of native thyroglobulin with an increase in both circulating antibody to native thyroglobulin and severity and frequency of t...

BACKGROUND Thyrotropin-producing pituitary tumor is relatively rare. In particular, concurrent cases associated with Graves' disease are extremely rare and only nine cases have been reported so far. We describe a case of a thyrotropin-producing pituitary adenoma concomitant with Graves' disease, which was successfully treated. CASE PRESENTATION A 40-year-old Japanese woman presented with mild...

Thyroglobulin binds to isolated thyroid plasma membrane preparations. Binding is pHand temperaturedependent with lo-fold better binding at pH 5.0 and 37°C than at 0°C and pH 6.0 through pH 7.5. Binding is, however, maximal in 90 min at all pH values and temperatures examined. Although salts can inhibit or enhance thyroglobulin binding depending on the temperature or pH, conditions approaching t...

Purified rat tumor thyroglobulin from the experimental rat thyroid tumor, line 1-1C2, was studied for its thyroid hormone content after in vivo and in vitro iodination and compared with normal and desialylated normal rat thyroglobulin. Tumor thyroglobulin had a very low sialic acid and iodine content; after in vivo iodination it contained only small amounts of triiodothyronine (T3) and no detec...

Autoimmune thyropathies are frequently linked to many infections, such as Helicobacter pylori, which are also supposed to play a role in their pathogenesis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationships between thyroid and gastric autoimmunity and H. pylori infection on a large sample of Czech population (n=1621) by monitoring the autoantibodies against thyroglobulin (anti-Tg) and thy...

Background Premature ovarian failure (POF) is a disorder of multi causal etiology. Autoimmunity has been proposed as a mechanism for some cases of ovarian follicle dysfunction which is evident in POF. The aim of this study was to identify the level of auto-antibodies in POF and familial POF patients. MaterialsAndMethods In this study, auto-antibodies including anti-ovarian antibody (AOA), anti ...

The most common cause of acquired thyroid dysfunction is autoimmune disease (AITD), which commonly manifests as Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) or Graves' (GD). importance vitamin D (vit D) an immune modulator has recently been emphasized in several types disorders. However, its significance illnesses not fully understood. purpose this study to investigate how affects the pathophysiology hyperthyr...

COVID-1 has been linked to thyroid problems in the past. Hyperthyroidism is a disease that affects wide range of people, from those with no symptoms who are experiencing symptoms. Objective: determination this study look at mortality rates and clinic pathological aspects various illnesses. Method: A Multi-center conducted NTH HMC Hospital Peshawar between 2017 May 2018 was culled for study. Cas...

Well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma (WDTC) generally has a favorable prognosis. However, patients with distant metastatic disease experience progression of disease with a higher mortality. A subset of patients not previously described may challenge the conventional dogma regarding the progressive nature of all metastatic WDTC. Through analysis of our database, we identified patients with dist...
