The mutant T allele was detected at low frequency in both groups of women studied. The association of the T allele with the development of hypothyroidism in Slovak women was not confirmed. The results of this work provide initial information on the distribution of genotypes and alleles in the studied variant of PAX8 gene in the Slovak female population.
