Q

this disease is characterized as a toxic diffuse goiter (an enlarged, hyperactive thyroid gland) with an immunologic origin. Patients with this disease have circulating thyroid-stimulating antibodies (TSAb). This is most likely due to a defect in suppressor T lymphocytes, which allows for antigenic stimulation by thyroid antigens and production of immunoglobulins.
