ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the influence of the fetal microchemirism in the thyroid tissue on the Graves' disease(GD) animal model.Methods Mice in experimental group were injected with Ad-TSH289(5?108IU) to construct the GD animal model,and when the immunization was over,the experimental group was randomly divided into three parts again two groups were mated with male mice until two weeks of pregnancy or two weeks post-partum while the other group was simple immunized with Ad-TSH289 only.SRY was tested by real-time PCR.Thyroid tissue was stained with HE for pathological examination.Results Histological examination of the thyroid gland revealed that 61.8% of simple immunized mice had goiter,the success rate of GD animal model was 38.5% in pregnancy group,but 76.9% in postpartum groups(P
