| | 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. |

 | | 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. |

 | | 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). |
