Graves' disease is caused by stimulating autoantibodies against the thyrotropin receptor inducing uncontrolled overproduction of thyroid hormones. A Bridge Assay is presented for direct detection of these thyroid-stimulating immunoglobulins using thyrotropin receptor chimeras. A capture receptor, fo

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous virus that infects most adults latently. It persists in B lymphocytes and reactivates occasionally. Graves' disease is an autoimmune hyperthyroidism caused by thyrotropin receptor antibodies (TRAbs). We have reported that Graves' disease patients and healthy

PURPOSE: Recognition of dysthyroid optic neuropathy (DON) requires sensitive diagnostic tools. Clinical assessment may fail to reliably evaluate the acuteness of DON especially if signs for inflammation are missing. Aim of this cross-sectional study was to assess the relationship between thyroid-sti
