 Thyroglobulin
Although thyroglobulin levels may be elevated in patients with thyroid cancer, a large number of benign thyroid conditions may also be associated with elevated levels of thyroglobulin, hence an increased thyroglobulin alone in a patient not known to have thyroid cancer is not a sensitive or specific test for the diagnosis of thyroid cancer.
Ideally, the thyroglobulin levels will be low or undetectable after treatment (usually surgery followed by radioactive iodine).
There are certain pitfalls to the interpretation of thyroglobulin levels, which may include assay variability and the presence of thyroglobulin antibodies.

 Thyroglobulin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hence, a thyroglobulin deficient patient typically shows symptoms of slow speech, lack of energy, weight gain, hair loss, dry thick skin, and increased sensitivity to cold.
It is rarely perscribed to patients as many other proteins aid in these processes and an abundance of thyroglobulin unsurprisingly has similar side-effects to an unhealthily low amount.

Patients who had been treated shouldn't have thyroglobulin mRNA, just as they wouldn't have thyroglobulin.

Serum thyroglobulin in hospitalized chronic geriatric patients: its relationship to age, non-thyroidal illness, goitre and thyroid dysfunction in a follow-up study.
Two-hundred and twenty-six non-selected, chronic hospitalized patients over 60 years old and 82 healthy adults (20-40 years) participated in the study, and TSH, thyroxine, free thyroxine, triiodothyronine and TG were estimated.
Nevertheless, the advantage of TG estimation to be more constant than TSH could be of benefit in screening studies.

A main application for the thyroglobulin determination is the post surgical monitoring of patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma.
With the help of the recovery reagent, that is included in the kit, the user can detect the presence of possible autoantibodies directed against thyroglobulin in the patient serum.
Elevated thyroglobulin serum concentrations have been reported in various thyroid diseases, such as hyperthyroidism, non-toxic goiter, thyroiditis, and differenciated thyroid carcinoma.

 Thyroid Panel
Patients with positive rTSH-stimulated thyroglobulin concentrations and/or radioiodine scans can then be directed for appropriate therapy.
Thyroxine did not improve cognitive function and psychological wellbeing in healthy participants.
CONCLUSION: Radioiodine scanning and serum thyroglobulin measurement after intramuscular injection of rTSH are valuable new monitoring options in patients with treated thyroid cancer, avoiding the adverse effects of hypothyroidism.

The principle use of serum thyroglobulin is in evaluating patients after near-total or total thyroidectomy with or without
Autoantibodies to thyroid peroxidase and, less commonly, to thyroglobulin are present in almost all patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, and thyroid peroxidase autoantibodies are usually detected in patients with Graves' disease.
The major problem with the current immunometric assay and radioimmunoassay methods in measuring serum thyroglobulin is the presence of thyroglobulin antibodies, which usually results in an underestimation of serum thyroglobulin.

 Projects Brix: Extrathyroidal Thyroglobulin
Circulating thyroglobulin is cleared within the liver via internalization by Kupffer cells, e.g.
Thyroglobulin binds to the cell surface of the macrophages, reaches endosomes within 5 minutes of endocytosis, and accumulates within lysosomes after 60 minutes (see Figure above).
Thyroglobulin is synthesized within epithelial cells of the thyroid and it is stored within the follicular lumen at high concentrations.

 Thyroglobulin
The vast majority of follicular carcinomas of the thyroid will give positive immunoreactivity for thyroglobulin even though sometimes only focal.
- This antibody reacts with human thyroglobulin, as demonstrated by a single band of immunoblotting in a lysate of human thyroid tissue.
Poorly differentiated carcinomas of the thyroid are nearly always thyroglobulin negative.

Therefore, the main indication of serum Tg is the monitoring of patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) after total thyroidectomy and ablative radioiodine treatment.
The determination of serum Tg can also be useful to distinguish between subacute thyroiditis and factitious thyrotoxicosis and for differential diagnosis of neonatal hypothyroidism.
AITD are characterized by the occurence of antibodies against several antigens in the thyroid gland, especially against the TSH receptor (TSH-R), thyroperoxidase (anti-TPO) and thyroglobulin (anti-Tg).

Autoantibodies to thyroglobulin are associated with chronic lymphocytic (Hashimoto) thyroiditis (76-100%), primary myxedema (72%), hyperthyroidism (33%), colloid goiter (8%), adenoma (28%), thyroid cancer (13-65%), and autoimmune disease.
High levels also occur in goiter and in many types of hyperthyroidism.
High thyroglobulin values are reported with surgery or irradiation to the thyroid, with thyroiditis, T4-binding globulin deficiency, with administration of TRH, TSH, iodine, and with administration of anticancer drugs.
