Genome-wide meta-analysis identifies novel loci associated with free triiodothyronine and thyroid-stimulating hormone

ConclusionWe identified a first genome-wide significant variant associated with fT3 plasma levels, as well as a novel locus associated with TSH plasma levels. These findings are biologically relevant and enrich our knowledge about the genetic basis of pituitary-thyroid axis function.
