The thyroid stimulating hormone receptor in human disease.

Abstract:

:The initial step in the action of thyrotropin (TSH) is its binding to the TSH receptor. TSH receptor antibodies are detected in up to 90% of patients with Graves' disease. Serial measurements of TSH receptor antibodies in patients with Graves' hyperthyroidism are helpful in predicting relapse. The TSH receptor was purified using affinity chromatography on wheat germ lectin agarose and TSH-agarose. Using an immunoblotting technique to characterize the TSH receptor, it was found to be an oligomeric glycoprotein consisting of three noncovalently bound subunits of Mr approximately 70,000, approximately 50,000 and approximately 35,000 which on reduction yield a single subunit of Mr approximately 25,000.

  • Random uncertainty of photometric determination of hemolysis index on the Abbott Architect c16000 platform.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:Automatic photometric determination of the hemolysis index (HI) on serum and plasma samples is central to detect potential interferences of in vitro hemolysis on laboratory tests. When HI is above an established cut-off for interference, results may suffer from a significant bias and undermine clinical relia...
