Role of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) pathway in the pathogenesis of Graves' orbitopathyTerry J Smith
University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, MI 48105, USA
Best Pract Res Clin Endocrinol Metab 26:291-302. 2012..In sum, based on current evidence, IGF-1R and TSHR can be thought of as "partners in crime". Involvement of the former probably transcends disease boundaries, while TSHR may not...

Pathogenesis of Graves' orbitopathy: a 2010 updateT J Smith
Departments of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences and Internal Medicine, University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, MI 48105, USA
J Endocrinol Invest 33:414-21. 2010..As emerging insights into human autoimmunity becomes applied to the study of Graves' disease, we anticipate that improved therapeutic strategies will find their way to our patients with GO...
Potential role for bone marrow-derived fibrocytes in the orbital fibroblast heterogeneity associated with thyroid-associated ophthalmopathyT J Smith
Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences and Division of Metabolism and Endocrine Diseases, University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, MI, USA
Clin Exp Immunol 162:24-31. 2010..These attributes also raise the possibility that they might be useful targets against which therapeutic agents might be aimed...
Fibroblasts expressing the thyrotropin receptor overarch thyroid and orbit in Graves' diseaseTerry J Smith
Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, University of Michigan Medical School, Kellogg Eye Center, Brehm Tower, 1000 Wall Street, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48105, USA
J Clin Endocrinol Metab 96:3827-37. 2011..Patients with GD have increased frequency of circulating monocyte lineage cells known as fibrocytes. These fibrocytes infiltrate orbital connective tissues in thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy and express functional TSH receptor (TSHR)...
Interleukin-6 production in CD40-engaged fibrocytes in thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy: involvement of Akt and NF-κBErin F Gillespie
Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, University of Michigan Medical School, Kellogg Eye Center, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48105, USA
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci 53:7746-53. 2012..The functional consequences of CD40 ligation are determined since these may promote tissue remodeling linked with thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO)...
Human fibrocytes coexpress thyroglobulin and thyrotropin receptorRoshini Fernando
Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, Kellogg Eye Center, University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, MI 48105, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 109:7427-32. 2012..These findings indicate that human fibrocytes express multiple "thyroid-specific" proteins, the levels of which are reduced after they infiltrate tissue. Our observations establish the basis for Tg accumulation in orbital GD...
Thyroid eye disease: towards an evidence base for treatment in the 21st centuryErin F Gillespie
Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Science, University of Michigan Medical School, 1000 Wall Street, Suite 7120, Ann Arbor, MI 48105, USA
Curr Neurol Neurosci Rep 12:318-24. 2012..In this article, we review evidence from prospective therapeutic trials of several treatment modalities. We focus on moderate to severe active TED...
PGE2 induces IL-6 in orbital fibroblasts through EP2 receptors and increased gene promoter activity: implications to thyroid-associated ophthalmopathyNupur Raychaudhuri
Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, Michigan, United States of America
PLoS ONE 5:e15296. 2010..Orbital tissues become inflamed in TAO, a process in which prostanoids have been implicated. Orbital fibroblasts both generate and respond to PGE(2), underlying the inflammatory phenotype of these cells...
