Table 1.

Mechanisms underlying the relationship between HT and kidney disease.

In situ immune response against thyroglobulin (TG) deposition at subepithelial level
Circulating TG–anti-TG complexes trapped at subendothelial level due to increased glomerular permeability
Megalin (gp330) as a possible immunologic target
Epitope spreading
Genetic predisposition and cross-reactivity between antigens
