Accumulating evidence shows that genes that cause monogenic diseases also contribute to similar complex disease in the general population. We sought to determine whether the allelic variation in seven monogenic bone disease genes (CLCN7, TCIRGI, SOST

Background Ultrasonography (USG) and technetium-99m sestamibi (MIBI) scintigraphy are commonly used imaging modalities in the era of minimally invasive parathyroidectomy (MIP) for primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT). However, their relative importance

Autoimmune thyroiditis (AT) is characterized by a continuous inflammatory self-destructive process that eventually leads to chronic progressive dysfunction of the thyroid. In a previously established experimental AT model, C57bl/6 mice immunized with

Autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) is a common autoimmune disease. Thyroid peroxidase (TPO) is a well characterized autoantigen in AITD. Autoantibodies and autoreactive T lymphocytes to TPO are believed to play a major role in the pathogenesis of lymp

The Sp1 polymorphism in the first intron of the collagen Ialpha1 gene was recently described to be associated with low bone mineral density (BMD) and increased fracture risk in Caucasian populations. The impact of this gene was assessed in a Southern

The synthetic steroid 7α-methyl-19-nortestosterone (MENT) is a potent androgen that is resistant to 5α-reductase. It thus has decreased activity at the prostate and may have advantages over testosterone-based regimens in long term treatment or as p

Thiourea drugs have been postulated to possess radioprotective property. We studied the effect of adjunctive antithyroid drugs (ATD) and L-thyroxine (L-T4) on the result of radioiodine (RAI) 131I therapy and determined the incidence of hypothyroidism
