The effect of cervical X-irradiation on activity index of thyrocytes and plasma TSH: A pre-clinical model for radiation-induced thyroid damage
Because radiotherapy in the head and neck region is necessary in the treatment of childhood cancer, possibilities to prevent damage to the thyroid gland must be explored. We developed a model in which radiatio...

169 THE ETIOLOGY OF CONGENITAL HYPOTHYROIDISM (CHT) IN THE NETHERLANDS
The Dutch national thyroid screening (measuring T4 and in the 20% samples with lowest T4 also TSH) was started in 1981. The abnormal screening results were evaluated 4 till 6 years later. Of the 176,311 screen...

RESTRICTION FRAGMENT LENGTH POLYMORPHISM (RFLP) STUDIES IN THYROGLOBULIN SYNTHESIS DEFECTS
Data obtained from the screening on congenital hypothyroidism show that hereditary thyroid disorders in the Netherlands occur with an incidence of about 1:20,000. The etiologic classes we found in this populat...

ABNORMAL SKELETAL DEVELOPMENT IN GOATS WITH CONGENITAL HYPOTHYROIDISM
In some infants with congenital hypothyroidism (CH) X-ray photographs of the long bones reveal increased mineral content and absence of the medullary cavity, resembling osteopetrosis. We studied this feature i...

The human thyroglobulin gene: A polymorphic marker localized distal to C-MYC on chromosome 8 band q24
The human thyroglobulin (Tg) gene is localized to chromosome 8 and regionally to band q24 as shown independently by both in situ hybridization techniques and Southern blot analysis of human-rodent somatic cell...

Excretion of iodohistidines, an important laboratory aid for the diagnosis of a special type of thyroidal disorder
Iodohistidines were found in urines of patients with congenital goiter with abnormal iodoproteins (see also Savoie et al'). They were not detectable in urine of patients with other types of congenital goiter, ...

Muscle Glyceraldehydephosphate Dehydrogenase: NAD+ Binding and its Implications for the Mechanism of Action of the Enzyme
The binding of NAD+ to rabbit-muscle glyceraldehydephosphate dehydrogenase (D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate:NAD+ oxidoreductase (phosphorylating), EC 1.2.1.12) has been studied extensively by several groups (1, 2, 3...
