TG and Hashimoto thyroiditis: Background: Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) is characterized by the loss of tolerance to thyroid autoantigens [thyroid peroxidase (TPO) and thyroglobulin (Tg)], usually identifying circulating antibodies (Abs) against these thyroid autoantigens (TPOAb and/or TgAb), together with a significant lymphocytic infiltration, causing an increased risk of hypothyroidism.
