Autoimmune Thyroid Disorders [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Thyroid Research, 2011
Thyroid autoimmunity, as reflected by the presence in serum of autoantibodies directed against the thyroid autoantigens thyroglobulin (Tg) and thyroid peroxidase (TPO), is present in >10% of the US population over 12 years of age [1] and is the most common cause of endocrine dysfunction in iodine-sufficient populations [2].

Autoimmune Thyroiditis in Childhood

open access: goldJournal of Clinical Research in Pediatric Endocrinology, 2012
Autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT) is the most common thyroid disorder in the pediatric age range. The disease results from an as yet poorly characterized defect or defects in immunoregulation and a cascade of events progressing from lymphocyte infiltration of the thyroid, to T-cell- and cytokine-mediated thyroid follicular cell injury, and apoptotic cell ...

Screening of endocrine organ-specific humoral autoimmunity in 47,XXY Klinefelter's syndrome reveals a significant increase in diabetes-specific immunoreactivity in comparison with healthy control men. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of humoral endocrine organ-specific autoimmunity in 47,XXY Klinefelter’s syndrome (KS) by investigating the autoantibody profile specific to type 1 diabetes (T1DM), Addison’s disease (AD), Hashimoto ...

Cytokine Secretion and Pyroptosis of Thyroid Follicular Cells Mediated by Enhanced NLRP3, NLRP1, NLRC4, and AIM2 Inflammasomes Are Associated With Autoimmune Thyroiditis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Background Inflammasomes, which mediate maturation of interleukin-1β (IL-β) and interleukin-18 (IL-18) and lead to pyroptosis, have been linked to various autoimmune disorders.

Vitamin D Receptor Gene Polymorphisms and Autoimmune Thyroiditis: Are They Associated with Disease Occurrence and Its Features?

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2019
Purpose Vitamin D, besides its role in calcium-phosphorus metabolism, turned out to play a significant immunomodulating function. Until now four single nucleotide polymorphisms of vitamin D receptor gene (VDR), rs2228570 (FokI), rs1544410 (BsmI ...
