Abstract:Several loss-of-function TSHR gene mutations have been reported previously. In the present study, a mutation in exon 10 of the TSHR gene was studied. A 35-year-old mother of two children attended our hospital with symptoms of hypothyroidism after her second delivery. She had elevated levels of thyroid hormones including both the thyroid antibodies and those treated with L-thyroxine. In the present study, exon 10 of the TSHR gene of the patient was studied. Sequencing of exon 10 revealed a G to T transversion, … Show more
