Definición

La enfermedad de Graves es un trastorno autoinmune en EN Erythema nodosum is an immune-mediated panniculitis (inflammation of the subcutaneous fat) caused by a type IV (delayed-type) hypersensitivity reaction. It commonly manifests in young women as tender, erythematous nodules on the shins. Erythema Nodosum el que los LOS Neisseria anticuerpos contra los LOS Neisseria receptores de la hormona estimulante de la tiroides (TSH) hacen que la glándula tiroides se encuentre hiperfuncionante. El síndrome puede tener las siguientes características:

  • Hipertiroidismo (más común)
  • Bocio: agrandamiento de la tiroides
  • Oftalmopatía: oftalmopatía de Graves/enfermedad ocular tiroidea
  • Dermopatía: mixedema pretibial

Anemia: Overview and Types perniciosa, diabetes Diabetes Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia and dysfunction of the regulation of glucose metabolism by insulin.

  • Retroalimentación negativa: ↑ hormonas tiroideas → compensatoria ↓ TSH
Bucle de retroalimentación negativa clásico Hashimoto

Bucle de retroalimentación del eje hipotálamo-hipófisis-tiroides:
Cuando las hormonas tiroideas son bajas, el hipotálamo libera la hormona liberadora de tirotropina (TRH), que hace que la glándula pituitaria secrete TSH. El efecto de este proceso es que la glándula tiroides produce tiroxina (T4) y triyodotironina (T3) (se produce más T4, ya que se convierte en T3). El aumento de las hormonas tiroideas (T3/T4 libre o no unida) crea una retroalimentación negativa, inhibiendo la liberación de TRH y TSH.
