Abstract

Background: Irrespective of the recommendations of the use of serum TSH as a cornerstone of thyroid function testing,the laboratory diagnosis and monitoring of thyroid disease are based on the thyroid panel including anti-TPO and anti-TG,which are essential to manage thyroid diseases especially autoimmune thyroid diseases Graves’ disease and Hashimoto’sthyroiditis.
Methods: In this clinical study prospective assessment of the morning serum anti-TPO and anti-TG concentrations were performed in 50 subjects with Graves’ disease and 50 with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and 40 healthy subjects. Serum concentrations of anti-TPO and anti-TG were determined by chemiluminescence immunoassay of CLIA methods analyzer Immulite 2000.
Results: Patients with Graves’ disease and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis showed significantly higher concentrations of anti-TPO and anti-TG compared with healthy individuals (P <0.001). Anti-TPO values in the control group were 3.7± 0.46 IU/ml and anti-TG values were 10±0.05 IU/ml, significantly lower (P<0.001) compared to anti-TPO values (238.5 ± 7.95 IU/ml) in Graves’ disease and (333.3 ± 8.55 IU/ml) in Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. Anti-TG values in the control group were 10±0.55 IU/ml, significantly lower (P<0.001) compared to anti-TG values (42 ± 4.95IU/ml) in Graves’ disease and (53.3 ± 0.55Ul/ml) in Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.
Conclusion: Serum concentrations of anti-TPO and anti-TG respectively as organ specific autoantibodies are very precious parameters that enable precise and fast Graves’ disease and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis diagnosis.
