Thyroxine-Binding Globulin Concentrations
Plasma thyroid hormone concentrations may be abnormal in non-thyroid disease and pose diagnostic problems. For example, concentrations of triiodothyronine (T3) in the blood decline in acute illness with a reciprocal increase in reverse triiodothyronine (reverse T3), but thyroxine (T4) concentrations are usually normal or only slightly decreased (1, 2). However, McLarty et al. (3) reported that ...
متن کاملFamilial thyroxine-binding globulin deficiency.
Genetically determined thyroxine-binding globulin deficiency is described in two families in the United Kingdom. All subjects in both pedigrees were euthyroid. Transmission was by sex-linkage; males showed low serum protein bound iodine and high thyroxine (T4) resin uptake due to complete absence of serum thryroxine-binding globulin; females were less severely affected. The distinctive biochemi...
متن کاملThyroxine-protein interactions. Interaction of thyroxine and triiodothyronine with human thyroxine-binding globulin.
The effect of temperature on the binding of thyroxine and triiodothyronine to thyroxine-binding globulin has been studied by equilibrium dialysis. Inclusion of ovalbumin in the dialysis mixture stabilized thyroxine-binding globulin against losses in binding activity which had been found to occur during equilibrium dialysis. Ovalbumin by itself bound the thyroid hormones very weakly and its bind...
متن کاملUnforeseen effect of thyroxine binding globulin when using the microencapsulated antibody method to determine free thyroxine (FT4): misleading results due to circulating unsaturated thyroxine binding globulin.
The effect of varying concentrations (0-52 mg/l) of purified thyroxine binding globulin (TBG) on the microencapsulated antibody method for free thyroxine was investigated. The results demonstrated that the free thyroxine values were strongly influenced by the concentration of thyroxine binding globulin in the samples. The standard curve could no longer be distinguished at a concentration of pur...

to large volumes of serum may be due to adsorption of neuraminidases to the Sepharose either directly from serum or as the result of bacterial contamination. Partial desialylation of TBG in vivo may be an early step in the catabolism of this protein.
