In a quest to understand the intricate genetic basis of congenital hypothyroidism among the Bangladeshi population, our research team embarked on a journey into the Thyroid Stimulating Hormone Receptor (TSHR) gene. They have recently published a paper on congenital hypothyroidism entitled,” Molecular investigation of TSHR gene in Bangladeshi congenital hypothyroid patients”. This paper highlights Thyroid Dysgenesis in newborns and impacts of mutations on drug binding sites of TSHR protein. Congratulations to our former PhD Fellow Dr. Maliha and the co-authors for their contributions to the research.
