Abstract

The association between thyroglobulin gene polymorphism and autoimmune thyroid disease was investigated.A total of eight case-control studies were included.E33SNP was associated with increased susceptibility of autoimmune thyroid disease in recessive model (OR =1.54,95 % CI 1.21 ~ 1.97,P =0.024),while E12SNP was associated with increased susceptibility of autoimmune thyroid disease in allele model (OR =1.12,95% CI 1.05 ~1.21,P =0.033).Thyroglobulin gene polymorphism seems to be associated with autoimmune thyroid disease. Key words: Thyroglobulin; Autoimmune thyroid disease; Gene polymorphism
