In this study, we measured anti-microsomal (same as anti-thyroid peroxidase) and anti-thyroglobulin antibodies (anti-TPOAb and anti-TgAb) in sera by new RIA kits and compared with the conventional particle agglutination (PA) kits. Two of 80 normals (2.5%) showed anti-TPOAb positive activity (greater than or equal to 0.3 unit/ml), and 9 of same samples (11.3%) showed anti TgAb positive activity (greater than or equal to 0.3 unit/ml). Sixty of 67 patients with Graves' disease (89.6%), and 14 of 22 with Hashimoto's disease (63.6%) were anti-TPOAb positive, and 42 (62.7%), and 18 (81.8%) were anti-TgAb positive respectively. Samples of 5 non-autoimmune disease were all negative by TPOAb and TgAb assays, suggesting the high specificity of new RIA kits to the autoimmune thyroid diseases. The RIA and PA methods showed a good correlation (anti-TPOAb:rs = 0.9134, anti-TgAb:rs = 0.7016). However, several negative sera in PA assay showed positive values in the RIA, so it was showed that new RIA kits were more sensitive than the PA assays.
在本研究中,我们使用新型放射免疫分析(RIA)试剂盒检测血清中的抗微粒体抗体(与抗甲状腺过氧化物酶相同)和抗甲状腺球蛋白抗体(抗TPOAb和抗TgAb),并与传统的颗粒凝集(PA)试剂盒进行比较。80名正常人中有2名(2.5%)抗TPOAb呈阳性(大于或等于0.3单位/毫升),同一样本中有9名(11.3%)抗TgAb呈阳性(大于或等于0.3单位/毫升)。67例格雷夫斯病患者中有60例(89.6%),22例桥本氏病患者中有14例(63.6%)抗TPOAb呈阳性,分别有42例(62.7%)和18例(81.8%)抗TgAb呈阳性。5例非自身免疫性疾病样本的TPOAb和TgAb检测均为阴性,表明新型RIA试剂盒对自身免疫性甲状腺疾病具有高特异性。RIA法和PA法显示出良好的相关性(抗TPOAb:rs = 0.9134,抗TgAb:rs = 0.7016)。然而,PA检测中的几份阴性血清在RIA中显示为阳性值,因此表明新型RIA试剂盒比PA检测更敏感。
