Post-partum thyroiditis and goitrous (Hashimoto's) thyroiditis are associated with HLA-DR4. 1985

C Thompson, and N R Farid

Using new panels of HLA-DR typing sera, we found an increase in the prevalence of HLA-DR4 in 21 patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (57%) and 32 patients with post-partum thyroiditis (53%) compared to controls (21%). Hashimoto's thyroiditis was previously found to be associated with HLA-DR5 and Dw5. We feel that the doubts raised by this study warrant the study of DR antigens in thyroid autoimmune disease using large panels of specific sera.

D003922	Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1	A subtype of DIABETES MELLITUS that is characterized by INSULIN deficiency. It is manifested by the sudden onset of severe HYPERGLYCEMIA, rapid progression to DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS, and DEATH unless treated with insulin. The disease may occur at any age, but is most common in childhood or adolescence.

D006111	Graves Disease	A common form of hyperthyroidism with a diffuse hyperplastic GOITER. It is an autoimmune disorder that produces antibodies against the THYROID STIMULATING HORMONE RECEPTOR. These autoantibodies activate the TSH receptor, thereby stimulating the THYROID GLAND and hypersecretion of THYROID HORMONES. These autoantibodies can also affect the eyes (GRAVES OPHTHALMOPATHY) and the skin (Graves dermopathy).
