Thyroid Hormone Resistance Syndrome (Thyroid Hormone Resistance)

An inherited autosomal recessive trait, characterized by peripheral resistance to THYROID HORMONES and the resulting elevation in serum levels of THYROXINE and TRIIODOTHYRONINE. This syndrome is caused by mutations of gene THRB encoding the THYROID HORMONE RECEPTORS BETA in target cells. HYPOTHYROIDISM in these patients is partly overcome by the increased thyroid hormone levels.
Also Known As:
Thyroid Hormone Resistance; Generalized Resistance to Thyroid Hormone; Generalized Thyroid Hormone Resistance; Refetoff-DeWind-DeGroot Syndrome; Hormone Resistance, Thyroid; Refetoff DeWind DeGroot Syndrome; Resistance, Thyroid Hormone; Syndrome, Refetoff; Syndrome, Refetoff-DeWind-DeGroot; Refetoff Syndrome
