ABSTRACT
The A/G polymorphism of cytotoxic T lymphocyte associated antiger 4(CTLA-4) was determined by PCR-RFLP in 120 patients with recurrent Graves′ disease (GD), including 85 cases with early relapses within 3 years and 35 cases with relapses more than 3 years after withdrawal of antithyroid medication.66 initial GD patients and 100 healthy controls were included in the present study.The results suggest that A/G polymorphism of CTLA-4 was associated not only with GD, but also with early relapes after withdrawal of antithyroid medication.
