Clinical Features:
diagnosis:
II/1: 3.5yr (index patient), goiter

* based on 1 activating familial germline mutation investigated by Akcurin et al. 2008 
Treatment:
II/1: euthyroid but progressive thyroid enlargement with antithyroid medication
II/2: antithyroid drugs
I/1: antithyroid drugs ineffective, total TE at 36yr

Legend:
cAMP (basal): basal in vitro cAMP production of mutant over wild-type TSHR
cAMP (TSH): maximal in vitro cAMP production of mutant over wild-type TSHR
IP (basal): basal in vitro IP production of mutant over wild-type TSHR
IP (TSH): maximal in vitro IP production of mutant over wild-type TSHR
TSH-binding: maximal TSH-binding compared to the wild-type TSHR
Cell surface expression: cell surface expression of mutant compared to WT-TSHR
LRA: linear regression analysis (LRA) of constitutive activity as a function of TSHR expression determined by 125I-bTSH binding or FACS analysis compared to the wild-type TSHR
Prevalence: Prevalence of (somatic and germline) activating mutations*
