Abstract

Autoimmune thyroid disorders, including Hashimoto's thyroiditis and Grave's disease, represent complex conditions characterized by dysregulation of the immune system targeting the thyroid gland. Understanding the molecular and immunological mechanisms underlying the transition from Hashimoto's thyroiditis to Grave's disease is essential for unraveling the pathophysiology of these interconnected autoimmune conditions. We propose insights into the intricate interplay of genetic factors, immune responses, and hormonal pathways that drive the progression from hypothyroidism to hyperthyroidism, shedding light on new perspectives for diagnosis, management, and future research directions in autoimmune thyroid disorders.
