Study of Deiodinase Type 2 Polymorphisms in Graves' Disease and Ophthalmopathy in a Swedish Population

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Deiodinase type 2 (DIO2) is an enzyme that catalyzes the production of the active form of thyroid -hormone triiodothyronine (T3) from thyroxine (T4) and is important for maintaining intracellular T3 levels.

MicroRNAs in thyroid eye disease: expression signatures and clinical implications

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Thyroid eye disease (TED), also known as Graves’ ophthalmopathy (GO) or thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO), is an autoimmune orbital disease. The core pathogenic mechanism is immune dysregulation triggered by self-antigens, which activates orbital ...
