Falsely elevated thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level due to macro-TSH.
We encountered a 60-year-old woman with remarkably elevated thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level as measured by electrochemiluminescent immunoassay (ECLIA), but with no specific symptoms, and with normal levels of free T3 and free T4. We performed the following investigations: polyethylene glycol (PEG) precipitation test, human antimouse IgG antibody (HAMA) interference test, and 3 additiona...
متن کاملA Case of Idiopathic Thyrotropin (TSH) Deficiency
The first case of idiopathic thyrotropin (TSH) deficiency in an old woman with thyroid functioning adenoma was reported. She got subtotal thyroidectomy before about four years of her admission to our hospital because of fatigability, puffy face and leg edema. At time, she had low TSH and free T4 levels despite replacement therapy with desiccated thyroid. No response of only serum TSH after admi...
متن کاملDetection of Polyethylene Glycol Thyrotropin (TSH) Precipitable Percentage (Macro-TSH) in Patients with a History of Thyroid Cancer
BACKGROUND Owing to its large molecular size, polyethylene glycol (PEG)-precipitable thyrotropin (TSH) can accumulate in the circulation, elevating TSH levels. PEG-precipitable TSH can be used to detect macro-TSH (mTSH) in serum. Our aim was to evaluate the prevalence of mTSH in patients who had undergone thyroidectomy for thyroid cancer. METHODS Seventy-three thyroid cancer patients and 24 c...
متن کاملFolding-dependent binding of thyrotropin (TSH) and TSH receptor autoantibodies to the murine TSH receptor ectodomain.
The mouse TSH receptor ectodomain (mTSHR-ecd) was amplified from murine thyroid complementary DNA and ligated into the pAcGP67B insect cell vector, and the nucleotide sequence was confirmed. Employing a baculovirus-insect cell system, the mTSHR-ecd (amino acids 22-415) was expressed as a fusion protein with the gp67 insect cell signal sequence at the NH2-terminus and a C-terminal six-histidine ...
