Expression of leptin, interleukin (IL)-17 and retinoic acid-related orphan receptor γt (RORγt) mRNA in thyroid tissue. Expression of leptin, IL-17 and RORγt mRNA in thyroid mononuclear cells (TMCs) from six Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) patients compared with three patients with simple goitre (control). The levels of β-actin, leptin, IL-17 and RORγt mRNA were determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Levels of greyscale were then tested and corresponding values are shown.
