Resistance to Thyroid Hormone in the Absence of Mutations in the Thyroid Hormone Receptor Genes
Resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) is a syndrome of reduced tissue sensitivity to thyroid hormone. In the majority of subjects, RTH is caused by mutant thyroid hormone receptors (TR) ß molecules that interfere with the function of the normal TRß, thus ...

Thyroid hormone resistance syndrome. Inhibition of normal receptor function by mutant thyroid hormone receptors. [PDF]
Thyroid hormone (T3) resistance is inherited in most cases in an autosomal dominant manner. The disorder is characterized by elevated free thyroid hormone levels and partial resistance to thyroid hormone at the cellular level. Distinct single amino acid substitutions in the ligand binding domain of the beta form of the thyroid hormone receptor have ...

Background: Resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) is a dominantly inherited syndrome characterized by decreased responsiveness of target tissues to thyroid hormone. Two members of a Turkish family, a mother and son, had thyroid function tests suggestive of

Resistance to Thyroid Hormone (RTH)
The syndrome of resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) is characterized by reduced tissue responsiveness to thyroid hormone (TH) despite elevated circulating levels of free triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4).

In animal models, disruption of thyroid hormone receptor-beta (TRβ) reduces the medium-wavelength (L/M) and increases the short-wavelength (S)-cones. The retinal photoreceptors (RPs) functions are unknown in patients with resistance to thyroid hormone ...

Longitudinal evidence of the impact of normal thyroid stimulating hormone variations on cognitive functioning in very old age [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to examine longitudinal associations among thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels and cognitive performance. Data collected at the first three assessment times, approximately 3 years apart, are reported for the survivors ...

Three new mutations of thyroid hormone receptor-beta associated with resistance to thyroid hormone
Three novel point mutations at nucleotides 1249, 1282, and 1614 (exons 9 and 10) of the human thyroid hormone receptor-beta gene were observed in six individuals affected by the syndrome of resistance to thyroid hormone. All three mutations occurred in a

ODP521 THYROID HORMONE RESISTANCE SYNDROME
Abstract Introduction The Thyroid hormone resistance syndrome is characterized by decreased tissue sensitivity to thyroid hormones. The incidence is about 1/50,000. We present two clinical cases of this disease. Clinical case 1A 59-year-old woman was evaluated for presenting palpitations for more than

THYROID HORMONE RESISTANCE SYNDROME (THR)
INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUNDThyroid hormone resistance syndrome (THR) is a rare condition caused by defects in either one of the two thyroid hormone receptors which leads to tissue unresponsiveness to circulating thyroid hormones. The presentations vary depending on which receptor is affected.
