Abstract excerpt
Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) is a common autoimmune thyroid disorder with a complex genetic background. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) has been implicated in its pathogenesis, but the genetic mechanisms remain unclear. Two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) using expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) and gene set enrichment analysis (GWAS) data identified IL‑6-HT genes. In vivo validation in nonobese diabetic (NOD)...
