A series of compounds was synthesized by linking various derivatives of pyridine, pyrimidine or pyrazine to thiazole-2-thiol or to its partially hydrogenated derivative 2-thiazoline-2-thiol. The reactions of the compounds with molecular iodine and lactoperoxidase were examined in vitro. Their antithyroid activity was also examined in vivo in the rat. T4 and TSH levels were determined, and the thyroid gland was examined histologically. 2-(3-Hydroxy-2-pyridyl)-2-thiothiazoline had the highest antithyroid activity of the compounds tested (Kc = 14931.mol(-1),IC(50)0.65 x 10(-4) M, activity of thyroid gland).

The work is aimed to investigate whether midazolam functions in thyroid cancer and reveal the potential mechanism of action. Cell viability was detected by CCK-8 method when treated by varying doses of midazolam to detect the cytotoxicity of midazolam on human thyroid follicular epithelial cell line and thyroid cancer cell lines. In thyroid cancer cells, EDU staining, wound healing and transwell assays were respectively used to detect cell proliferation, migration and invasion.

Autoimmune polyglandular syndromes (APS) are characterized by associations of two or more autoimmune diseases (AID). APS type 3 is characterized by the presence of autoimmune thyroid disease associated with other AID, excluding adrenal gland involvement. Here we report a case of a 64-year-old male, with history of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), diagnosed at the age of 32, who was referred to a Diabetes consultation in 2014 due to poor metabolic control.

This study aimed to investigate serum levels of thyroxine (T4), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), and anti-thyroid peroxidase (TPO) antibodies in the environmentally exposed population of Kazakhstan in relation to symptoms of anxiety. A total of 1,388 nominally healthy individuals residing in areas exposed to three major types of environmental pollution prevalent in Kazakhstan-non-ferrous metallurgy, condensate gas extraction, and activities of the Semipalatinsk Nuclear Test Site (SNTS)-were enrolled.

Thyroid eye disease (TED) is the most consequential extrathyroidal manifestation or complication of Graves' disease (GD). Treatment of hyperthyroidism in GD complicated by TED is challenging. Antithyroid drugs (ATDs) and thyroidectomy do not change the natural course of TED, while radioactive iodine (RAI) is associated with a small but well-documented risk of TED de novo occurrence or its progression/worsening.

Purpose: Graves' disease (GD) and Graves' orbitopathy (GO) are multifactorial disorders with links to the gut microbiome and autoimmunity. It is observed that patients with GD exhibit altered gut microbiome diversity. However, little is known about the role of oral microbiota in GD and GO.
