Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between serum 25-(OH) D3 and autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD).Methods Serum levels of 25-(OH) D3, thyroid antibodies (thyroid stimulating hormone receptor antibody (TRAb), TGAb (thyroid globulin antibody), thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb) and thyroid function of 32 cases patients with Graves' diseases (GD), 17 cases patients without remission of GD,10 cases patients with remission of GD,35 cases patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT),and 58 cases healthy subjects were measured,and the relationships between serum 25-(OH) D3 and the above clinical index were analyzed.Results The serum level of 25-(OH) D3 in patients with GD or HT were obviously lower than that in healthy subjects((50.75±17.60) μg/L, (36.40±21.65) μg/L, (43.05±19.53) μg/L,P＜0.05).No significant difference of the serum level of 25-(OH) D3 was found between patients refractory of GD and those with GD in remission((32.43±17.50) μg/L, (31.88±14.48) μg/L,P=0.866).However,compared with the normal control group,both diseased groups showed significantly decrease (P＜0.05).No correlation was found between serum 25-(OH) D3 and TRAb, FT3, Fr4 as well as TSH in GD group.No correlation was found between serum 25-(OH) D3 and TGAb, TPOAb (P＞ 0.05).Conclusion Serum vitamin D levels are decreased in patients with AITD, which has been speculated as a potential therapeutic method for AITD, though further investigations are needed to establish the precise role of 25-(OH) D3 in AITD.
