In this lesson you will discover what thyroid peroxidase (TPO) antibodies are and what can be learned from them. You will also learn some about the role of thyroid peroxidase in the body. What Is Thyroid Peroxidase (TPO)? Have you ever gotten a cut or scrape? How did you treat it?
A positive result for the presence of thyroid peroxidase antibodies is most often found in, a condition also known as Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Patients with this disease create antibodies that attack the thyroid gland. They eventually experience a decrease in the production of the thyroid hormone, ...
Thyroid peroxidase (TPO) is an enzyme that participates in thyroid hormone biosynthesis. TPO is also a major autoantigen in autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD). In this review, we summarize the latest developments in the field of TPO research. We present the current understanding of immunodominant ...
Your thyroid is a tiny butterfly-shaped glad located in your neck. It’s what I like to call your hormonal power plant because it’s responsible for producing hormones that power up EVERY single one of your cells. That’s right. Your thyroid is a big deal. HUGE. Your cells cannot repr...
Thyroid peroxidase antibody(anti-TPO) (TgAb): checks for thyroid antibodies and to detectautoimmunethyroid conditions like hashimoto’s. T3 and ReverseT3 (rT3): assesses the amount of T3 your thyroid is producing and its ability to convert T4 to T3. ...
your body can still make the TSI antibody. If these levels rise too high, TSI will travel through your blood to the developing fetus, which may cause its thyroid to begin to produce more hormone than it needs. So as long as your doctor is checking your thyroid levels, both you and your...

In a lot of cases, the “normal” lab results do not reflect what is actually happening within the body. For example, in the case of subclinical hypothyroidism, while T4 and T3 thyroid hormone levels may be within normal ranges, thyroid antibody levels may be elevated. Antibodies can be ele...
Additionally, due to the autoimmune attack and destruction of the thyroid, self-reactive antibodies such as thyroid peroxidase (TPOAb) and thyroglobulin antibodies (TgAb) become elevated and contribute to these symptoms. Many people will finally be diagnosed with Hashimoto’s at this point, but thei...
