Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the link between STAT3 gene variants rs744166 and rs2293152 and autoimmune thyroid disorders in the Pakhtun population of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, using samples from 100 healthy individuals and 400 patients.
- It found a significant association of the TC and CC genotypes of rs744166 with Graves' disease (GD), indicating that the C allele increases disease risk, while no significant link was found for Hashimoto's thyroiditis.
- The research concluded that these STAT3 gene polymorphisms could play a role in autoimmunity for GD patients, but more extensive studies are needed for confirmation.
