Specificity: Thyroglobulin is a 660 kDa dimeric preprotein with multiple glycosylation sites is produced by and processed within the thyroid gland to produce the hormone thyroxine and triiodothyronine. Prior to forming dimmers, thyroglobulin monomers undergo conformation maturation in the endoplasmic reticulation. Thyroglobulin dimerization as well as transport of thyroglobulin to the Golgi complex is calcium dependent. Thyroglobulin defects resulting from defective dimer formation and export to the Golgi is thought to cause some types of goiter. Antibody against thyroglobulin may be produced by individuals with other diseases arising from the gland such as Hashimoto's or Graves disease. Hence the presence of thyroglobulin autoantibodies can help to identify disease. Antibody to thyroglobulin has been shown to be useful for the identification of papillary and follicular thyroid carcinoma; thyroglobulin antibody positive lesions are of thyroidal origin. Carcinomas of nonthyroidal origin do not express thyroglobulin and hence are thyroglobulin antibody negative. It is important to note though that not every type of thyroidal lesion is thyroglobulin antibody positive, a number of forms are negative. Hence a negative result does not necessarily rule out that a given lesion or metastasis originated from the thyroid gland.
