RESULTS: Anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies (AbTPO), a hypoechoic thyroid, and subclinical hypothyroidism were significantly more frequent in women with PsA than in control women, and their frequency was similar to that in patients with RA (positive AbTPO titer 28%, 12%, and 31%; hypoechoic ...
No obvious changes in aTPO were observed; however, the aTPO titer was increased in four previously positive patients. None of the patients positive for any antibodies developed an abnormality associated with these antibodies during an observation period of up to 1 yr. CONCLUSIONS: The pathogenesis ...
Tumors in the diaphragm, omentum, and pelvic sites were investigated for spreading index and omental tumor tissues were served for histological examination using H&E staining and immunohistochemistry with targeted antibodies. The survival times of the mice were compared between each group. 2.6. ...
The thyroid gland is located in the lower part of the neck, below the Adam's apple, wrapped around the trachea (windpipe). In autoimmune thyroid diseases such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis and Graves' disease, the body produces antibodies against thyroid peroxidase (TPOAb). These antibodies can ...
Excess dietary fat intake can induce lipotoxicity in non-adipose tissues. The aim of this study was to observe the effects of dietary high-fat lard intake on thyroid in rats. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed a high-fat lard diet for 24 weeks, and then t
Transient hypothyroidism was seen in 3 patients. No thyroid gland dysfunction was detected in the Neonatal Screening Program for congenital hypothyroidism before the administration of Gastrografin and thyroid antibodies were negative. Urine and serum iodine concentrations were elevated after Gastrografin ...
The proportion of hypothyroidism was calculated and thyroid peroxidase antibodies (TPO) in serum were measured. Results: Hypothyroidism at >50 years of age was found in 8% of women with PCOS, 4% in men (PCOS vs. men; ns), 43% of women with Turner syndrome, irrespective of karyotype (p...
The reactivity of the antibodies was detected using a streptavidin-peroxidase histostain-SP kit. The peroxi- dase activity was visualized with diaminobenzidine, followed by hematoxylin staining to counterstain the nuclei. Positive staining appeared as a brown-yellow color. Thyroid triglyceride content ...
Alirocumab and evolocumab are antibodies, which means that they are proteins that bind to another protein and inactivate them. Alirocumab and evolocumab bind to the PCSK9 protein and prevent it from destroying LDLR. By inhibiting PCSK9, alirocumab and evolocumab increase the number of LDLRs availabl...
