Autoimmune thyroid disorders (AITDs) are the most common organ-specific autoimmune disorders. The genetics as well as clinical and laboratory manifestations of AITDs are reviewed.We discuss the association between specific rheumatologic disorders and AITDs and manifestations of AITDs that mimic rheumatologic disorders.

Chronic Autoimmune Thyroiditis
New England Journal of Medicine, 1996In 1912, Hashimoto described four women in whom the thyroid gland was enlarged and appeared to have been transformed into lymphoid tissue (“struma lymphomatosa”).1 Although the patients were not initially hypothyroid, they became so after thyroid surgery.

Juvenile Autoimmune Thyroiditis
Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2007Autoimmune thyroiditis is a frequent cause of goiter in children and studies point to the increasing prevalence of juvenile autoimmune thyroiditis (JAT) in children and adolescents. Clinically, JAT can manifest, depending on the presence or absence of goiter, as either a goitrous form or atrophic form.

A considerable proportion of the thyroid diseases is due to aberrant immune reactions toward thyroid antigens. Autoreactivity is considered to be a normal process controlled by several suppressor mechanisms. Malfunction of these suppressor mechanisms may result in autoimmune disease.

La Presse Médicale, 2012
This review of human autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) focuses mainly on the epidemiology and pathophysiology of this very common disorder, although some specific clinical situations are discussed. One peculiarity of AITD is the existence of two contrasting phenotypes: hypothyroid thyroiditis and hyperthyroid Graves' disease.

Annual Review of Medicine, 1986
The concept of thyroid autoimmune disease now includes the following clinical entities: 1 degree thyrotoxicosis and goitrous thyroiditis (Hashimoto) with their variants, and 1 degree myxedema (atrophic thyroiditis); some cases of sporadic nontoxic goiters; most cases of neonatal hyperthyroidism; and a proportion of congenital athyreotic cretinism ...

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 2007
Interesting clinical and basic studies have been published in the field of autoimmune thyroiditis (represented by Graves' disease and Hashimoto's thyroiditis) since January 2005. The review is organized into four main areas: genetics, environment, adaptive immune system, and innate immune system.The quest continues for the identification of ...

Autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) is a multifactorial disease in which autoimmunity against thyroid antigens develops against a particular genetic background facilitated by exposure to environmental factors. Immunogenicity of the major thyroid antigens thyroid peroxidase, thyroglobulin (TG) and thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) is increased by genetic ...

Thyroid Autoimmunity and Ageing
Hormone Research, 1995Ageing is associated with the appearance of several serum autoantibodies, including thyroid autoantibodies. The biological and clinical significance of this phenomenon is still unknown, since, with the exception of primary myxedema, the prevalence of clinically overt thyroid autoimmune diseases is not increased in the elderly. The peculiar link between

Autoimmune mechanisms are responsible for only about 10% of all clinically apparent thyroid disorders. However, they play a major role in two of the three serious entities: Graves' disease and Hashimoto's thyroiditis. The complex questions that still persist with regard to the etiology and character of the autoimmune processes—and their clinical ...
