The test measures a protein known as thyroglobulin, which is made by thyroid-cancer cells. |
|
Glutathione peroxidase in thyroid tissue also controls thyroglobulin iodination. |
|
Thyroid antibodies were measured by an immunoradiographic procedure using thyroglobulin and purified thyroid peroxidase in 11 subjects. |
|
Chronic stimulation of the receptor causes an increase in the synthesis of a major thyroid hormone precursor, thyroglobulin. |
|
Immunostains for thyroglobulin were positive in both tumor elements, and calcitonin stain was negative. |
|
The tissue specific expression of thyroglobulin and parathyroid hormone is commonly used for diagnosis and follow up of patients with thyroid cancer. |
|
Further antibody and serology testing of anti microsomal antibodies, thyroglobulin, Lyme serology, and perineoplastic antibodies were negative. |
|
Determinations of thyroglobulin and thyrocalcitonin are useful in the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid cancer. |
|
In thyroid cells, thyrotropin stimulation increases the ER chaperone BIP by enhancing thyroglobulin synthesis. |
|
Thyroglobulin contains 140 tyrosine residues and serves as the matrix to which reactive iodine is attached to form monoiodotyrosine and diiodotyrosine. |
