Thyroid DiseasesSerum GlobulinsThyroxine-Binding ProteinsPedigreeAdolescentAdultChildInfantSummaryA new kindred with elevated levels of serum thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG) as an inherited trait has been reported. Of the twenty-four family members tested, three males and nine females had elevated serum...
The increased serum concentration of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) along with the synthesis of thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG) may lead to the alteration of maternal thyroid hormone levels during early pregnancy [3], with the maternal serum TSH level being generally lower in the first ...
His thyroid binding globulin (TBG) level was within the normal range. On the basis of these findings, he was suspected to have FDH. From the interview, his father had been treated with antithyoid drug, but he had no symptom and stopped medication. His father and his elder brother also ...
A four generation study of familial dysalbuminemic hyperthyroxinemia: diagnosis in the presence of an acquired excess of thyroxine-binding globulin We have studied the largest kindred with familial dysalbuminemic hyperthyroxinemia (FDH) thus far reported, comprising thirty-three blood relations in four...
Free thyroid hormone concentrations in subjects with various abnormalities of binding proteins: experience with amerlex free-T4 and free-T3 assays. SUMMARYFree thyroid hormone concentrations measured by Amerlex assays were studied in subjects with inherited disorders of thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG).....
Ten had thyroxine-binding globulin excess (1:8088), 5 had evidence for increased T4 binding but not thyroxine-binding globulin excess (1:16,177), and 2 had findings compatible with thyroid hormone resistance (1:40,442); the other 84 infants had transient hyperthyroxinemia. Sequence analysis ...

His normal 伪-subunit and sex hormone binding globulin, partially suppressed TSH by high dose triiodothyronine (T3), and positive TSH response to thyrotropin-releasing hormone stimulation were consistent with resistance to thyroid hormone syndrome. The diagnosis was confirmed by direct sequencing of ...
