Rajesh V. Thakker,Paul J. Newey,Gerard V Walls,John P. Bilezikian,Henning Dralle,Peter R. Ebeling,Shlomo Melmed,Akihiro Sakurai,Francesco Tonelli,Maria Luisa Brandi +9 more
TL;DR: It is recommended that MEN1 patients and their families should be cared for by multidisciplinary teams comprising relevant specialists with experience in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with endocrine tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Administration of thyroxine in treated Graves' disease. Effects on the level of antibodies to thyroid-stimulating hormone receptors and on the risk of recurrence of hyperthyroidism.
Kiyoshi Hashizume,Kazuo Ichikawa,Akihiro Sakurai,Satoru Suzuki,Teiji Takeda,Mutsuhiro Kobayashi,Takahide Miyamoto,Miyuki Arai,Takeshi Nagasawa +8 more
TL;DR: The administration of thyroxine during antithyroid drug treatment decreases both the production of antibodies to TSH receptors and the frequency of recurrence of hyperthyroidism.
Journal ArticleDOI
High Prevalence of Hypothyroidism in Patients with Autoimmune Pancreatitis
Kenichi Komatsu,Hideaki Hamano,Yasuhide Ochi,Mari Takayama,Takashi Muraki,Kaname Yoshizawa,Akihiro Sakurai,Masao Ota,Shigeyuki Kawa +8 more
TL;DR: There is a significant difference in the prevalence of antithyroglobulin antibody and hypothyroidism between patients with autoimmune pancreatitis and those with chronic pancreatitis, but there is no significant association between any HLA antigens and the Hypothyroid state of autoimmune pancitis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of a thyroid hormone receptor expressed in human kidney and other tissues.
TL;DR: Identification of human thyroid hormone receptor type alpha 2 indicates that two or more forms of thyroid hormone receptors exist in human tissues and may explain the normal variation in thyroid hormone responsiveness of various organs and the selective tissue abnormalities found in the thyroid hormone resistance syndromes.
Journal ArticleDOI
A human early response gene homologous to murine nur77 and rat NGFI-B, and related to the nuclear receptor superfamily.
TL;DR: The mRNA of NAK1 was induced rapidly and transiently by growth-stimulating agents, such as adenosine diphosphate, in monkey kidney cells, by phytohemagglutinin in human lymphocytes, and by serum stimulation of arrested fibroblasts.
