The novel chimeric(Mc4) TSH-R (amino acid residues 262-335 of human TSH-R replaced by rat LH-R)
A novel thyroid stimulating immunoglobulin assay chimeric (Mc4) TSH-R (amino acid residues 262-335 of human TSH-R replaced by rat LH-R) TSI level of GO was greater than that of Graves’ disease without ophthalmopathy. Majority of patients with GD had undergone antithyroid treatment and were rendered euthyroid at the time of blood sampling.

Summary (1) TSH receptor is a primary autoantigen in GO. Recent study suggests the presence of GO specific TRAb (Mc4)? The increase of TSH receptor expression through adipogenesis is important in the pathogenesis of GO. 3. CD34+ fibroblasts, which are derived from peripheral blood and expand in the orbit, express TSH receptor in high level.
4. The increase of IGF-1 receptor expression in the orbital fibroblasts may also be important. Activation of IGF-1R leads secretion of IL-16 and RANTES on CD34-fibroblasts, which enhance recruitment of activated T lymphocytes. CD90 (Thy-1)+ orbital fibroblasts may differentiate into myofibroblasts that participate in the development of fibrosis in late stages of the disease. Gene polymorphisms of the immunomodulator genes (such as TNFa, ICAM-1, NFkB, PPARg and FOXP3 etc) have been proposed as the susceptibility genes for GO. The significance of the presence of anti-eye muscle antibodies, such as SDH, CASQ needs to be confirmed.

Eyelid swelling Eyelid eythema Conjunctival redness Proptosis Case 17 MRI:The enlargement of superior, inferior, medial and lateral rectus muscles may compress optic nerve. T2 immage: The increased T2 relaxation time indicates that GO is in active state.
Summary (2) MRI is useful for the assessment of GO. useful for planning of the management of GO. We strongly recommend MRI for management of GO.
