Original Source: Cutting Edge: The Etiology of Autoimmune Thyroid Diseases.
Significant progress has been made in our understanding of the mechanisms leading to autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD). For the first time, we are beginning to unravel these mechanisms at the molecular level. AITD, including Graves' disease (GD) and Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT), are common autoimmune diseases affecting the thyroid. They have a complex etiology that involves genetic and environmental influences. Seven genes have been shown to contribute to the etiology of AITD. The first AITD gene discovere...

Medullary Thyroid Cancer Medication In Final Stage Of Development
Cabozantinib, a medication for the treatment of medullary thyroid cancer, has shown promising results in final-stage testing. Until now, there was no medication available in Belgium for treating this...
Thyroid Journal Publishes First Comprehensive Guidelines For Managing Anaplastic Thyroid Cancer
Anaplastic thyroid cancer is a rare form of thyroid tumor, but it is also the most deadly. Newly developed evidence-based recommendations for the diagnosis, treatment, and long-term monitoring and fol...
Soy Formula May Harm Babies With Underactive Thyroid: Report
By Serena Gordon HealthDay Reporter TUESDAY, Aug. 21 (HealthDay News) -- Babies born with congenital hypothyroidism -- a condition that causes low or no thyroid hormone production -- s...

Thyroid guard: Do I need one during a mammogram?
Thyroid guard — A Mayo Clinic expert discusses using thyroid guards during mammograms to reduce the risk of thyroid cancer from radiation.
Thyroid in 2012: Advances in thyroid development, hormone action and neoplasia
In 2012, we learned that functional thyroid tissue can be generated in vitro, and that thyroid hormones stimulate autophagy. Patients with defects in TRα have been identified, and di-iodothyropropion...
[Comment] Treating advanced radioresistant differentiated thyroid cancer
Despite a decline in overall mortality from cancer in the USA, thyroid cancer incidence has more than doubled in the past decade, with an associated rise in mortality. Equivalent or even more pronounc...

Controlled chattering-a new 'cutting-edge' technology for nanofabrication.
Chatters are unwanted random defects on surfaces often generated in cutting samples via microtome for micrographic analysis. In this work, we demonstrate that chatters can actually be controlled for f...
Design and characterization of nanoknife with buffering beam for in situ single-cell cutting.
A novel nanoknife with a buffering beam is proposed for single-cell cutting. The nanoknife was fabricated from a commercial atomic force microscopy (AFM) cantilever by focused-ion-beam (FIB) etching t...
A one-step approach for the fabrication of polymer and metal nanowires.
The fabrication of one-dimensional (1D) polymer and metal nanowires were obtained in a one-step mechanical approach. This approach is based on a controlled chattering process at the cutting edge of an...
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Studies from iodine-sufficient areas have shown that a high proportion of patients taking medication for thyroid diseases have thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels outside th...
Cutting-Edge Issues in Organ-Specific Autoimmunity.
There have been numerous methods and ways to classify autoimmune diseases. By far, the most traditional has been to separate immune-mediated pathology into organ-specific and organ-non-specific diseas...
