  • Thirty-eight patients with metastatic well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma treated with 200mCi $^{131}I$ were studied. There were false negative serum thyroglobulin values during TSH suppression or at anti-thyroglobulin antibody(+) and discrepancies between findings of whole body scan and serum thyroglobulin level. After one to five cycles of 200mCi $^{131}I$ therapy, complete remission and partial remission were achieved at 5.3% and 57.9%, respectively. We concluded that all of serum thyroglobulin, TSH, anti-thyroglobulin antibody, $^{131}I$ or $^{123}I$ whole body scan were necessary in follow up of metastatic well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma. Also, if there was no response after repetitive 200mCi $^{131}I$ therapy, higher doses of $^{131}I$ therapy should be considered.

  • We produced twelve monoclonal antibodies(mAbs) against thyroglobulin and characterized the bindig profiles. Among them, three mAbs(TN-1, TN-2 and TN-3) were further characterized their binding specificities. TN-2 had a potent lupus anticoagulant activity and potentiated the anticoagulant effect of venom phospholipase A₂. he anticoagulant mechanism of TN-2 was elongation of the partial thromboplastin time and binding to phosphatidylserine which may have a pivot role in blood coagulation. And TN-2 was cross-reacted with ss-DNA and ds-DNA and had a characteristic of autoantibody. These results suggest that TN-2 may provide a useful tool for studying the correlation between autoimmune thyroiditis and its therapeutic effect.

  • Thyroglobulin antibody (TgAb) is a class G immunoglobulin and a conventional marker for thyroid autoimmunity. From a clinical perspective, TgAb is less useful than thyroid peroxidase antibodies for predicting thyroid dysfunction. However, TgAb is found more frequently in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) and can interfere with thyroglobulin (Tg) measurements, which are used to monitor the recurrence or persistence of DTC. Recent studies suggested a small but consistent role for preoperative TgAb in predicting DTC in thyroid nodules, and in reflecting adverse tumor characteristics or prognosis, including lymph node metastasis, but this is still controversial. Postoperative TgAb can serve as a biomarker for remnant thyroid tissue, so follow-up measures of TgAb are useful for predicting cancer recurrence in DTC patients. Since high serum TgAb levels may also affect the fine needle aspiration washout Tg levels from suspicious lymph nodes of DTC patients, it is important to use caution when interpreting the washout Tg levels in patients who are positive for TgAb.

  • Iodine-rich seaweed soup has been traditionally supplied to postpartum women in Korea. This dietary habit might introduce over-intake of iodine above the recommended requirements, and might provoke postpartum thyroid dysfunction. Although the response to excess iodine intake is highly variable, goiter, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, and thyroiditis could follow the daily intake of 1,500$\mu\textrm{g}$ of iodine. A few studies are available concerning iodine toxicity in Korea. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between the dietary intake of iodine and thyroid function change as well as the incidence of postpartum thyroiditis. One hundred and thirty-seven postpartum women who had experienced normal deliveries were studied. Dietary intake of iodine and excretion concentration of iodine in breast milk and maternal urine were measured . Serum T$_3$, T$_4$, TSH, anti-thyroglobulin antibody, and anti-microsomal antibody were anlayzed 1 week before delivery and 1, 6, 12, and24 weeks after delivery. Iodine intake was analyzed by one-to-one interviews using 24-hr recall and a food frequncy questionnaire. The result showed that the intake of dietary iodine before delivery and 1 and24 weeks after delivery were 483$\mu\textrm{g}$/day, 3367$\mu\textrm{g}$/day, and 1069$\mu\textrm{g}$/day, respectively. The concentration of iodine in urine at the first week after delivery was 63$\mu\textrm{g}$/dL, and 23.9$\mu\textrm{g}$/dL in breast milk . The levels of serum T$_3$ and T$_4$ before delivery were 2.01ng/mL and 11.49$\mu\textrm{g}$U/dL, respectively, showing that the levels were gradually dropping to normal values after delivery. Positive serum anti-thyroglobulin antibody and anti-microsomal antibody appeared in 3 cases. After a 24 week follow-up period , 6 women(10.3%) experienced cases of postpartum thyroiditis, 5 of which were cases of hyperthyroidism and one of which was a case of hypothyroidism. These figures of postpartum thyroiditis are similar to those of other countries.

  • 목적 : Thyroglobulin (Tg)은 갑상선질환의 병태생리에 중추적 역할을 하고 있으며, 분화갑상선암 환자에서 갑상선암 재발에 대한 추적관찰에 가장 중요한 표지자의 하나로 임상에서 널리 이용된다. 혈청 Tg는 방사면역검사법 및 면역방사계수검사법으로 주로 측정되는데, 항 Tg 항체가 Tg측정값의 부정확성에 주된 영향인자임이 알려져 있으며 본 연구진에서도 보고한 바 있다. 본 연구자들은 국내에서 가장 널리 이용되는 면역방사계수법 Tg 키트 2종류를 이용하여, Tg측정 시 항 Tg 항체 영향이 사용된 키트에 따라 어떤 차이가 있는지 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 면역방사계수법을 이용한 Tg 측정키트 2가지(A와 B)를 이용하였다. 검사시료로서는 Tg와 항 Tg 항체 표준용액을 혼합한 시료과 Tg 농도가 높은 환자의 혈청과 항 Tg 항체의 농도가 높은 환자의 혈청을 혼합한 시료를 이용하였다. 검사방법은 A 및 B 키트 모두 제조회사에서 제시한 표준방법을 이용하여 검사를 시행하였다. 통계학적 분석은 ANOVA test 를 이용하였다. 결과: Tg와 항 Tg 항체 표준용액을 혼합한 시료를 이용한 검사 시 두 가지 키트 모두에서 항 Tg 항체가 존재하는 경우 Tg값이 유의하게 낮게 측정되었다. 그러나 A 키트를 이용한 경우 그 정도가 현저하였으며, B 키트를 이용한 경우 임상적으로 의미가 없을 정도로 미약하였다. 환자의 혈청을 이용한 검사에서는 A 키트에서만 Tg측정값이 과소평가되는 결과를 나타내었다. 결론: 항 Tg 항체의 존재는 면역방사계수법을 이용한 혈청 Tg 측정시 과소평가를 일으킬 수 있으며, 그 정도는 사용한 Tg측정 키트에 따라 상이하게 나타남을 알 수 있다. 그러므로 Tg측정 시 항 Tg항체의 측정이 꼭 필요하며, 항 Tg 항체를 가진 혈청에서의 Tg 측정치를 해석할 경우 세심한 주의가 필요하리라 생각된다. 추적검사로 $^{18}F$-FDG PET, 흉부 CT, 그리고, 혈액검사를 시행받았다. PET추적검사 상 이전에 높은 섭취를 보였던 7명 중 6명에서 peak 및 mean SUV의 감소를 보였고 이전에 높은 섭취를 보인 나머지 1명과 낮은 섭취를 보인 1명에서는 병변이 완전히 소실되었다. 이러한 변화 소견은 흉부 CT 추적검사 소견과도 일치하였다. 결론: 원발성 과호산구증가 증후군 환자군에서 폐침범을 보이는 경우, 폐병변은 FDG PET 영상에서 폐암과 유사한정도의 높은 섭취를 보이는 위양성 결과를 나타내어 한번의 PET검사만으로는 양성과 악성을 감별할 수 없었다. 이러한 경우, 추적검사로 CT 및 $^{18}F$-FDG PET를 시행하여 병변의 위치 및 범위, SUV의 변화 소견을 같이 보는 것이 원발성 과호산구증가 증후군 환자에 있어서 보일 수 있는 폐침범 소견과 악성 종양을 감별하는 데 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. 심벽두꺼워짐의 향상과는 상관성이 없었다. 심근기능의 전부하 후부하에 독립적인 지표인 탄성도는 실제 부피의 증가와 연관되지 않으면서도 생존능이 있는 심근의 기준과 일치하는 양상을 보였으므로 독립적인 매개변수로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.높았다. 그러나 두 약제 섭취율 증가의 차이는 동물실험에서는 관찰되지 않았다. 이러한 결과로 보아 MIBI와 tetrofosmin은 Pgp와 MRP에 의한 다약제내성의 발현을 평가할 수 있는 방사성의약품으로 판단되며, 다약제내성 극복제의 시험관내 효능평가에는 MIBI가 tetrofosmin보다 더 우수할 것으로 사료되었다.변화는 없었다. 결론: Verapamil은 암세포의 종류에 따라 MIBI와 TF의 섭취를 감소시켰고, 고용량에는 MDR세포의 섭취도 감소시켰으며 이러한 현상은 세포독성 이나 PKC효소 아형과는 관련이 없었다. 그러므로

  • In recent years with development of immuno-electrophoresis, more acurate analysis of the serum protein became possible. However, there is few reports in the literature which investigated the changes of the immunoglobulin compared with electrophoretically fractioned serum thyroglobulin in the patients with various thyroid diseases. The purpose of this report is to investigate the changes of thyroglobulin in various thyroid diseases by the method of immuno-electrophoresis and to compare the results with.serum protein fractionated by the method of agar-gel micro-electrophoresis. Materials and Methods: Sera from 9 patients with diffuse toxic goiter, 2 nodular nontoxic goiter, 2 thyroiditis, 3 hypothy, roidism, 1 thyroid cancer, 7 cystic degeneration of the thyroid gland, and 10 normal subject were taken. All cases were confirmed by various laboratory thyroid function tests and thyroid needle biopsy. Immuno-electrophoretic analysis of the serum were performed by Scheidegger's modified micro-immuno-electrophoretic method. The antiserum was obtained from the Travenol Laboratories International, Hyland Products Division and was rabbit anti-human thyroglobulin. Microscope slide agar-gel electrophoresis for serum protein fractionation was performed at $4^{\circ}C$ using veronal buffer, pH 8.6 and ionic strength 0.05, with 54 volts and 2.8 mA for 60 minutes. The fractionated slide was stained with 0.1% thiazine red. The results were as follows: 1) Increase of immune-globulin macroglobulin (IgM), alphaglobulin, and immune-globulin A (IgA) by 95.8%, 100%, 29.2% respectively was found in the serum from various thyroid diseases. 2) Thyroglobulin fraction was found to be increased in 50%, no change in 41.7%, and no line in 8.3% with all of the various goiter patients. On the other hand, 10 normal control group showed only 2 cases of increase, 5 cases of no change and 3 cases of no line.

  • Clinical measurement of thyroid autoantibodies in sera of some thyroid disorders have been widely applied since about twenty years ago. We investigated the incidence and titers of both anti microsomal and antithyroglobulin antibodies in forty eight cases with controls and one hundred and thirty three patients with some form of thyroid disorders. The results were as follows; 1) In controls, antimicrosomal antibodies were positive in 2% but anti thyroglobulin antibodies were all negative. 2) In a series of one hundred and thirty three patients with thyroid disease, anti microsomal antibodies were positive in 44% but antithyroglobulin antibodies were positive in only 15%. 3) The rate disclosing the positive results of antimicrosomal antibodies were 71 % in Hashmoto's disease, 60% in Graves' disease, and 38% in primary hypothroidism, respectively. On the other hand, the positive results of antithyroglobulin antibodies showed 21 % in Graves' disease, 19% in primary hypothyroidism, and 18% in Hashmoto's disease, respectively. Though there were relatively high rate of both antimicrosomal and anti thyroglobulin antibodies in patients with nodular goiter, they were only seven cases in our series. 4) The rate with the extremely high titers of antimicrosomal and antithyroglobulin antibodies$(>1:160^2)$ was 83% and 67% in Hashmoto's disease, 50% and 67% in primary hypothyroidism, and 41% and 18% in Graves' disease. Accordingly, the thyroid autoantibodies were commonly found higher positive rate in patients with Hashmoto's disease, primary hypothyroidism, and Graves' disease. Among these disorders, the extremely high positive rate of the thyroid autoantibodies was found in patients with Hashmoto's disease.

  • The thyroid hormones act on nearly every cell in the body. Moreover, the thyroid gland continuously interacts with the ovaries, and the thyroid hormones are involved in almost all phases of reproduction. Thyroid dysfunctions are relatively common among women of reproductive age, and can affect fertility in various ways, resulting in anovulatory cycles, high prolactin levels, and sex hormone imbalances. Undiagnosed and untreated thyroid disease can be a cause of subfertility. Subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH), also known as mild thyroid failure, is diagnosed when peripheral thyroid hormone levels are within the normal reference laboratory range, but serum thyroid-stimulating hormone levels are mildly elevated. Thyroid autoimmunity (TAI) is characterized by the presence of anti-thyroid antibodies, which include anti-thyroperoxidase and anti-thyroglobulin antibodies. SCH and TAI may remain latent, asymptomatic, or even undiagnosed for an extended period. It has also been demonstrated that controlled ovarian hyperstimulation has a significant impact on thyroid function, particularly in women with TAI. In the current review, we describe the interactions between thyroid dysfunctions and subfertility, as well as the proper work-up and management of thyroid dysfunctions in subfertile women.
