  • Title: Goitrous Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Lack of association with HLA antigens.
    Author: Fein HG, Metz S, Nikolai TF, Johnson AH, Smallridge RC.
    Journal: Mol Biol Med; 1986 Apr; 3(2):195-9. PubMed ID: 3461235.
    Abstract:
    We studied HLA antigen frequency in 54 carefully selected patients with goitrous Hashimoto's thyroiditis. All had an appropriate clinical course, positive family history, antithyroid antibodies and/or a needle biopsy indicating chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis. We found no statistically significant association with any HLA-A, -B, -C or DR specificity.
