Article Synopsis
- Graves' Disease (GD) is an autoimmune disorder more common in women, and a study examined the levels of estrogen and progesterone receptors as well as cell proliferation in thyroid tissues from GD and nodular goiter (NG) patients.
- Significant findings showed that GD patients had higher progesterone receptor expression and Ki-67 proliferation index compared to NG patients, indicating more active cell growth in GD.
- However, no significant correlations were found with patient demographics or disease markers, suggesting that hormonal receptor levels in the thyroid do not differ significantly between male and female patients with GD.
