Resistance to Thyroid Hormone

Hormone Research, 2009
Resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) is usually dominantly inherited and is characterized by elevated free thyroid hormones in the serum and failure to suppress pituitary thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) secretion with variable refractoriness to hormone action in peripheral tissues.

Thyroid Hormone Resistance

Annual Review of Medicine, 1992
Generalized resistance to thyroid hormone (GRTH) encompasses a heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by reduced responses of target tissues to thyroid hormone due to defects at the site of hormone action. In the majority of patients, GRTH is inherited as a dominant trait associated with mutations in the hormone-binding domain of the thyroid ...

Thyroid hormone resistance

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 2008
Abstract Thyroid hormone resistance (THR) is a rare syndrome of reduced end organ sensitivity. Patients with THR have elevated serum free thyroxine (FT4), free triiodothyronine (FT3), but normal or slightly elevated serum thyrotropin values.

Thyroid hormone resistance

Annals of Clinical Biochemistry: International Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2006
Resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) is a rare autosomal dominant inherited syndrome of reduced end-organ responsiveness to thyroid hormone. Patients with RTH have elevated serum free thyroxine (FT4) and free triiodothyronine (FT3) concentrations and normal or slightly elevated serum thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) level.

Resistance to Thyroid Hormone

Reviews in Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders, 2000
The syndromes of resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) are generally characterized by reduced tissue responsiveness to thyroid hormone (TH) despite elevated circulating levels of free T 3 and/or T 4 (Refetoff et al., 1993). It is associated with an inappropriately normal or raised serum TSH characteristic of impaired thyrotroph sensitivity.

Thyroid Hormone Generalized Resistance

Hormone Research, 2008
The syndromes of thyroid hormone resistance may affect overall or only some tissues. The generalized resistance is an inherited disease which involves a familial eumetabolic or hypometabolic goiter, increased free thyroid hormones with normal or elevated plasma TSH levels; children may present mental retardation, deafness, short stature and delayed ...

Resistance to Thyroid Hormone in Pregnancy

Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2008
Resistance to thyroid hormone manifests as high serum levels of free thyroxine and free triiodothyronine, with nonsuppressed thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels. We report a case series of three patients with this condition, the changes in thyroid function tests during their pregnancies, and their obstetric outcome.Three pregnant women with ...

The Syndromes of Resistance to Thyroid Hormone*

Endocrine Reviews, 1993
I. Introduction THE syndromes of resistance to thyroid hormone are characterized by reduced clinical and biochemical manifestations of thyroid hormone action relative to the circulating hormone levels. In practice, most patients are identified by the persistent elevation of serum levels of T4 and T3 with “inappropriately” nonsuppressed TSH, in the ...

Pituitary Resistance to Thyroid Hormones

Hormone Research, 2008
Pituitary thyroid hormone resistance (PRTH) refers to a particular form of thyroid hormone refractoriness that is accompanied by peripheral hyperthyroidism, as only the TSH-secreting pituitary cells appear to be resistant to the effects of thyroid hormones. The presence of PRTH is suspected and diagnosed on the basis of the finding of high free thyroid

Familial thyroid hormone resistance

The American Journal of Medicine, 1981
Eight patients with thyroid hormone resistance were found in four generations of a kindred containing 19 members. Results of studies in this family are consistent with an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance for this disorder. The affected family members were clinically euthyroid but all had goiters and markedly increased serum thyroid hormone levels:
