Other antibodies occur in Graves’ and other autoimmune diseases such as Hashimoto’s disease. These antibodies bind to the TSH receptor but stimulate only thyroid growth without increasing thyroid hormone secretion. Some antibodies bond to the TSH receptor but block TSH action and lead to thyroid …
What Positive Thyroid Antibodies Mean
Thyroid function has been almost exactly evaluated by the measurement . of serum free thyroxine (FT4), free triiodothyronine (FT3) and . thyrotropin (TSH) concentrations. However, we occasionally experience . patients who show a discrepancy between free thyroid hormones and TSH . values, and the assessment of thyroid function in such cases is

If the TSH is abnormal, the lab will cascade additional measurements of free thyroid hormones and thyroid peroxidase antibodies as appropriate. •A normal serum TSH excludes primary thyroid disease, but could be consistent with the much rarer problem of central or secondary hypothyroidism due to hypothalamic/pituitary disease.

These antibodies are called thyroid-stimulating immunoglobulin (TSI). They have a prolonged stimulating effect on the thyroid gland, lasting for as long as 12 hours, in contrast to a little over 1 hour for TSH. The high level of thyroid hormone secretion caused by TSI in turn suppresses anterior pituitary formation of TSH.

TSH - will be increased in 1o hypothyroidism (low T4/T3 ( lack of neg. feedback) Free T4 - will be decreased ( measure if TSH high. Free T3 - will be decreased, but less sensitive ( don’t measure; (recall: get all 3 for hyper tho) Antibodies - will have anti-TPO and anti-Tg Ig’s. Tx - give L-thyroxine (synthetic T4… has longer T1/2 than T3)

In patients with an elevated serum TSH level, measurement of thyroid microsomal antibodies detects a considerable number of positive cases even when TSH is only mildly elevated. Because this provides evidence for disordered thyroid immunity, the authors suggest that tests for antibodies be triggered as part of the cascade when TSH levels are 5 ...

If Graves’ disease is suspected, testing for TSH receptor antibodies (TRAb) should be performed. The American Thyroid Association and the U.S. Preventative Services Task Force have advocated screening asymptomatic adults with serum TSH at age 35 years and every 5 years thereafter, but the cost-effectiveness of this is still controversial.
