Long-term Pathologic Changes of α1-Acid Glycoprotein (orosomucoid) Glycoforms in Autoimmune Thyroid Disease

Abstract: Patients with autoimmune Graves' disease changed their relationship to AGP, and thus a role of AGP and its 3 glycoforms is suggested in the pathogenesis of Graves' disease.

“…The associations of AGP with rheumatoid arthritis [39] and other autoimmune diseases e.g. Grave's disease [40], together with the high prevalence of these disorders in women [11] are strongly supporting the upregulation of AGP in women observed in this study. The Multiple PDZ domain protein, was the only signal transduction PPs identi ed in this study, it was up-regulated in women.…”

“…In healthy individuals, the relative proportion of the three glycoforms seems to be relatively constant, and no significant correlation to sex and age has been observed. This normal distribution of AGP glycoforms changes during acute and chronic inflammation, pregnancy, estrogen treatment, cancer, and liver damage . AGP's glycan pattern modification has also been investigated in autoimmune diseases.…”

“…Additionally, it is known that glycosylation patterns of orosomucoid 2 are distinct among inflammatory and autoimmune diseases (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, SLE, autoimmune thyroiditis, etc. ), thereby, affecting their physical properties and function 25 27 . Our findings may suggest the role of this protein in stimulation of proliferating T cells and regulation of local inflammation in lesional area.…”
