We experienced two cases of Graves' disease associated with anti-thyroid hormone autoantibodies (Case 1: anti-T4, Case 2: anti-T3). Both cases underwent subtotal thyroidectomy, and titers of anti-thyroid hormone antibodies and anti-Tg antibodies were compared before and after operation. In case 1, titers of both anti-T4 and anti-Tg antibodies decreased after operation, whereas in Case 2, titers of both anti-T3 and anti-Tg were unchanged before and after operation. There was a significant positive correlation between titers of anti-T4 and anti-Tg antibodies in Case 1 (r = 0.90, P less than 0.01), and anti-T3 and anti-Tg antibodies in Case 2 (r = 0.64, P less than 0.01). These results strengthen the possibility that the antigen of anti-thyroid hormone autoantibodies in both cases is the Tg molecule.
我们遇到了两例与抗甲状腺激素自身抗体相关的格雷夫斯病(病例1:抗T4,病例2:抗T3)。两例患者均接受了甲状腺次全切除术,并比较了手术前后抗甲状腺激素抗体和抗Tg抗体的滴度。在病例1中,术后抗T4和抗Tg抗体的滴度均下降,而在病例2中,抗T3和抗Tg的滴度在手术前后均未改变。病例1中抗T4和抗Tg抗体的滴度之间存在显著正相关(r = 0.90,P小于0.01),病例2中抗T3和抗Tg抗体之间也存在显著正相关(r = 0.64,P小于0.01)。这些结果增强了两例中抗甲状腺激素自身抗体的抗原均为Tg分子的可能性。
