Not all elevated hormones are toxic: A case of thyroid hormone resistance

open access: yesJournal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2016
Resistance to thyroid hormone syndrome (RTH) is a rare disorder and is usually inherited as dominantly negative autosomal trait. RTH is caused by mutations in the thyroid hormone receptor beta.

Thyroid Hormone Resistance Syndromes

open access: yes, 2019
Syndromes with impaired sensitivity to thyroid hormone (TH) include three types of resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) syndromes (RTHβ, RTHα, and nonTR-RTH) and also include patients with defects in TH transport into cells (thyroid hormone cell membrane ...

The zebrafish model to identify new genes involved in thyroid development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Thyroid organogenesis is a very complex developmental process that leads to the formation of an organ able to produce specific hormones through specification, migration, structural organization and functional differentiation of thyroid precursor cells ...

A clinician’s guide to understanding resistance to thyroid hormone due to receptor mutations in the TRα and TRβ isoforms

open access: yesClinical Diabetes and Endocrinology, 2017
There are two genes that express the major thyroid hormone receptor isoforms. Mutations in both these genes have given rise to Resistance to Thyroid Hormone (RTH) syndromes (RTHβ, RTHα) that can have variable phenotypes for mutations of the same receptor

A two-day-old hyperthyroid neonate with thyroid hormone resistance born to a mother with well-controlled Graves’ disease: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2012
Introduction Resistance to thyroid hormone is a syndrome caused by thyroid hormone receptor β mutations, which are usually inherited in an autosomal-dominant pattern.

Identification of a novel THRB mutation causing thyroid hormone resistance syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Endocrinology and Metabolism
Resistance to thyroid hormone syndrome (RTHS) is a rare disorder caused by mutations in the thyroid hormone receptor beta (THRB) gene, resulting in impaired action of thyroid hormones on target tissues and organs.

Alopecia: Association with Resistance to Thyroid Hormones

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2009
Resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) syndrome is caused by thyroid hormone beta receptor (TRbeta) mutations. Goiter, learning disabilities, psychological abnormalities, sinus tachycardia, hearing deficits, short stature, and growth delay are among the most common symptoms in patients with RTH.

The interpretation and management of thyroid disorders

open access: yesSouth African Family Practice, 2013
This short review is intended to simplify the interpretation of thyroid function tests (TFTs) in general practice. The relationship between thyroid hormones and the use of TFTs, as well as thyroid antibodies, is discussed.

Sensitivity to thyroid hormone indices are associated with papillary thyroid carcinoma in Chinese patients with thyroid nodules

open access: yesBMC Endocrine Disorders, 2023
Background The association between thyroid hormone sensitivity and thyroid cancer is unknown, and we aimed to investigate the association between sensitivity to thyroid hormone indices and papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) in Chinese patients with ...

Syndrome of Resistance to Thyroid Hormone: Insights into Thyroid Hormone Action

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1996
Thyroid hormones (T3, T4) exert multiple cellular effects through nuclear thyroid hormone receptors (TR alpha, TR beta). Thyroid hormone receptors are transcription factors that act by altering patterns of gene expression. Resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) is a rare disorder caused by mutations in the TR beta gene.
