Abstract excerpt
Thyroid hormone resistance is a syndrome of considerable clinical heterogeneity. Three mutations in the c-erb A beta gene encoding the human beta thyroid hormone receptor have been described in different kindreds. We report here, in a family affected with peripheral thyroid hormone resistance, a...
