Seven SNPs in the DIO2 gene - rs225014 (Thr92Ala), rs12885300, rs2267872, rs225011, rs224995, rs225015, and rs2267873 - were studied to assess their association with GD and GO.
This suggests that the Thr92Ala variant of the DIO2 gene is associated or may be in linkage disequilibrium with a functional DIO2 polymorphism which involves in the development of GD in a Russian population.
Therefore, we genotyped D1 rs11206244, D2 rs225014, and rs12885300 polymorphisms in 134 GD patients, including 54 patients with intractable GD and 44 patients with GD in remission and 132 HD patients, including 57 patients with severe HD, 45 patients with mild HD, and 84 healthy controls using PCR-RFLP.
