Introduction Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) represents the most common congenital endocrine disorder in humans affecting approximately 1 of 2,000-4,000 live births [ 1 , 2 ]. The majority of CH cases are due to thyroid dysgenesis (TD), which

critical for thyroid hormone production, e.g. the sodium/iodide transporter, thyroid peroxidase, thyroid oxidase 2, thyroglobulin, and dehalogenase. About 80% of congenital hypothyroidism is not accompanied by goiter but due to thyroid dysgenesis. In this

(NIS), IYD and SLC26A7 . Also, monoallelic variants in DUOX2 and DUOXA2 can cause TCH. Thyroid dysgenesis (TD), now responsible for 60–65% of primary CH, refers to a phenotypic spectrum of aberrant thyroid gland development and includes athyreosis

the mechanisms involved in the regulation of this gene. Thus, the present study describes the effect of the main thyroid regulators and the role of transcriptional factors (TF) involved in thyroid dysgenesis on human thyroid DuOx2 promoter activity
