Autoimmune thyroid diseases are characterized by dysregulation of specific immune defenses (B and T cells) and production of antibodies which are predominantly of three types:
Grave’s disease is one of the most common autoimmune diseases in people and the most frequent cause of thyroid hyper-functioning. It can be recognized by a triad of symptoms called Merseburg triad which includes struma, exophthalmos and tachycardia. Another popular autoimmune thyroid disease is Hashimoto thyroiditis which involves progressive destruction of thyroid tissue by T-lymphocytes. So far, there is no absolute cure for Hashimoto thyroiditis. However, treatment aims at reverting the hypothyroid functioning caused by the disease.
