Identification of Novel Genetic Loci Associated with Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies and Clinical Thyroid Disease
Autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD) are common, affecting 2-5% of the general population. Individuals with positive thyroid peroxidase antibodies (TPOAbs) have an increased risk of autoimmune hypothyroidism (Hashimoto's thyroiditis), as well as autoimmune hyperthyroidism (Graves' disease). As the possible causative genes of TPOAbs and AITD remain largely unknown, we performed GWAS meta-analyses ...
متن کاملAnti-Thyroid Peroxidase and Risk of Recurrent Spontaneous Abortion
Background Approximately 2-4% of all women have recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA); however, the cause is determined in only 50% of cases. Recent studies have shown an association between thyroid autoantibodies as a sign of thyroid autoimmunity and abortion. The aim of the present study was to determine whether circulating anti-thyroid peroxidase (anti-TPO) was associated with RSA. MaterialsA...
متن کاملThyroid peroxidase antibodies in children with autoimmune thyroiditis.
AIMS To compare the prevalence of thyroid peroxidase antibodies in 25 children with autoimmune thyroid disorders and in 41 children and young adults with type 1 diabetes, and to test the prevalence of thyrotropin receptor antibodies. METHODS Two commercially available radioimmunoassays for antibodies to thyroid peroxidase, a commercially available agglutination test of particles coated with t...
متن کاملPrevalence of anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies in serum in the elderly: comparison with other tests for anti-thyroid antibodies.
Autoimmune thyroid disease, especially chronic thyroiditis, is prevalent in elderly women and is probably the major cause of hypothyroidism in this population. The reported prevalence of chronic thyroiditis is variable, depending on the area of residence and the method(s) used to detect the presence of anti-thyroid antibodies. The recent finding that thyroid peroxidase (TPO) is the antigen for ...
