Cosa sono anti recettori TSH?

Informazioni Cliniche: Gli autoanticorpi anti recettori del TSH, diretti contro il recettore della tireotropina, costituiscono una famiglia di anticorpi in grado di legarsi alla membrana delle cellule della tiroide in corrispondenza del recettore per la tireotropina.

Che cosa è il TSH reflex?

Il TSH reflex (TSH riflesso o TSH-r) è il protocollo diagnostico attraverso cui si misura il dosaggio ematico. Se il TSH reflex è #basso, cioè inferiore a 0.5 mIU/l, viene dosata anche la tiroxina (T4) nella sua forma libera fT4, e poi nel caso questa rientri nei valori normali, anche la triiodotironina (T3).

What does TSH anti receptor mean?

• TSH ANTI RECEPTOR ANTIBODIES. The antibodies to TSH receptors, also known as anti TSH, anti rTSH, anti TSHR, TrAb or TSH ab, they are auto antibodies to the receptor that binds thyrotropin (TSH). They are very common in autoimmune thyroid diseases such as Graves' disease, and are divided into stimulated antibodies and TSH receptor inhibiting ...

What is anti RTSH antibody?

• Antibodies to TSH receptors (anti rTSH): they are antibodies that bind to the receptor present in the thyroid cells that normally binds TSH. They are distinguished in TSH receptor stimulating antibodies and TSH receptor inhibiting antibodies.

Do TSH-R-ABS mimic or block the action of TSH?

• Results:TSH-R-Abs may mimic or block the action of TSH or be functionally neutral. Stimulating TSH-R-Abs are specific biomarkers for Graves disease (GD) and responsible for many of its clinical manifestations. TSH-R-Abs may also be found in patients with Hashimoto thyroiditis in whom they may contribute to the hypothyroidism of the disease.

How do you measure TSH-R-ABS?

• Measurement of TSH-R-Abs can be done with either immunoassays that detect specific binding of Abs to the TSH-R or cell-based bioassays that also provide information on their functional activity and potency.
