A direct free thyroxine (T4) immunoassay with the characteristics of a total T4 immunoassay.
BACKGROUND Direct free thyroxine (T(4)) measurements have been linked to both T(4)-binding serum protein concentrations and protein-bound T(4) concentrations. Whether this is evidence of a relationship to total T(4) concentrations has not been reported. METHODS We compared an analog-based direct free T(4) immunoassay and a total T(4) immunoassay. Each assay was applied to the fractions of ser...
متن کاملThyroxine (T4) Autoantibody Interference of Free T4 Concentration Measurement in a Patient With Hashimoto's Thyroiditis
Dear Editor, Interactions of thyroid hormone autoantibodies (THAAs) with thyroxine (T4) or triiodothyronine (T3) are less common than interactions of antibodies to thyroglobulin, microsomal thyroid peroxidase, and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) receptor. Nevertheless, these THAAs have been reported to cause spurious thyroid function test (TFT) results, indicating that TFT results do not alwa...
متن کاملClofibrate increases hepatic triiodothyronine (T3)- and thyroxine (T4)-glucuronosyltransferase activities and lowers plasma T3 and T4 concentrations in pigs.
In rats, clofibrate acts as a microsomal enzyme inducer and disrupts the metabolism of thyroid hormones by increasing hepatic glucuronidation of thyroxine. Whether similar effects occur in the pig has not yet been investigated. This study was performed to investigate the effect of clofibrate treatment on metabolism of thyroid hormones in pigs. To this end, an experiment with 18 pigs, which were...
متن کاملOral Liquid l-Thyroxine (l-T4) May Be Better Absorbed Compared to l-T4 Tablets Following Bariatric Surgery
Drug malabsorption is a potential concern after bariatric surgery. We present four case reports of hypothyroid patients who were well replaced with thyroxine tablets to euthyroid thyrotropin (TSH) levels prior to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery. These patients developed elevated TSH levels after the surgery, the TSH responded reversibly to switching from treatment with oral tablets to a liquid...
متن کاملBinding of nucleotides by T4 DNA ligase and T4 RNA ligase: optical absorbance and fluorescence studies.
The interaction of nucleotides with T4 DNA and RNA ligases has been characterized using ultraviolet visible (UV-VIS) absorbance and fluorescence spectroscopy. Both enzymes bind nucleotides with the K(d) between 0.1 and 20 microM. Nucleotide binding results in a decrease of absorbance at 260 nm due to pi-stacking with an aromatic residue, possibly phenylalanine, and causes red-shifting of the ab...
