Overview

Hashimoto's thyroiditis may be caused by either T cells and B cells auto activation, genetic factors, and autoimmune antibodies against thyrotropin receptors.

Causes

Common causes

• Autoantibodies against Thyroid peroxidase and thyroglobulin.
• Abnormalities in the suppressor T cells and regulatory T cells.
• HLA-B* 46:01, HLA-A* 02:07 and HLA-DRB4 involvement.
