Thyroperoxidase (TPO) is an enzyme involved in thyroid hormone synthesis.
Thyroid peroxidase antibodies (TPO) antibodies destroy cells of thyroid gland and cause hypothyroidism.
Thyroglobulin (TG) is a protein formed in thyroid gland and serves as a substrate for synthesis of thyroid hormones. Thyroglobulin antibodies (ATA) thus prevent formation of thyroid hormone leading to hypothyroidism. These antibodies are hallmark of Hashimoto thyroiditis but can be seen in Graves' disease also.
Thyroid antibodies test measure both Anti TPO & ATA

Thyroid antibodies test requires a blood sample. A tourniquet (elastic) band is placed tightly on the upper arm. The patient is then asked to make a fist. This helps in the build-up of blood filling the veins. The skin is disinfected before needle insertion and the blood sample is collected in vacutainer.
Normal levels : no thyroid antibodies were found. This means that symptoms of hypothyroidism are probably not caused by deficiency of TPO or ATA.
High values: suggestive of Hashimoto thyroiditis; these antibodies can also be seen in Grave's disease
