We have previously established an assay for the simultaneous assessment of thyrotropin (TSH) binding inhibitor immunoglobulin (TBII) and thyroid stimulating autoantibody activities in cultured rat thyroid cells (FRTL-5 cell), and found a discrepancy in some patients with untreated Graves' disease between the activities of TBII measured in FRTL-5 cells (TBII-rc) and in solubilized thyroid membranes (TBII-pm). In three selected patients with untreated Graves' disease, the different dose-response relationship between TBII-rc and TBII-pm clearly indicated the heterogeneous populations of TBII-pm in patients' sera, with different binding affinities for TSH receptor in intact cells.
我们之前建立了一种用于同时评估促甲状腺激素(TSH)结合抑制性免疫球蛋白(TBII)和甲状腺刺激自身抗体活性的检测方法,该方法用于培养的大鼠甲状腺细胞(FRTL-5细胞),并且发现在一些未经治疗的格雷夫斯病患者中,FRTL-5细胞中测得的TBII活性(TBII-rc)与溶解的甲状腺膜中测得的TBII活性(TBII-pm)之间存在差异。在三名选定的未经治疗的格雷夫斯病患者中,TBII-rc与TBII-pm之间不同的剂量反应关系清楚地表明了患者血清中TBII-pm的异质性群体,其对完整细胞中的TSH受体具有不同的结合亲和力。
