Abstract excerpt
(1) Background: Autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITDs) are female predominant and much attention has been focused on G protein-coupled receptor 174 (GPR174) and integral membrane protein 2A (ITM2A) on the X chromosome as Grave's disease (GD) susceptible locus. (2) Methods: We genotyped four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs3810712, rs3810711, rs3827440, and rs5912838, of GPR174 and ITM2A in 115 Korean...
