(1) Background: Autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITDs) are female predominant and much attention has been focused on G protein-coupled receptor 174 ( GPR174) and integral membrane protein 2A ( ITM2A) on the X chromosome as Grave's disease (GD) susceptible locus. (2) Methods: We genotyped four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs3810712, rs3810711, rs3827440, and rs5912838, of GPR174 and ITM2A in 115 Korean children with AITD (M = 25 and F = 90; GD = 74 (14.7 ± 3.6 years), HD = 41 (13.4 ± 3.2 years); GD-thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) = 40, GD-non-TAO=34) and 204 healthy Korean individuals (M = 104 and F = 100). The data were analyzed by sex-stratified or combined. (3) Results: Three SNPs, rs3810712, rs3810711 and rs3827440, were found to be in perfect linkage disequilibrium ( D ' = 1, r 2 = 1). In AITD, HD, GD, GD-TAO, and GD-non-TAO patients, rs3827440 TT/T and rs5912838 AA/A were susceptible and rs3827440 CC/C and rs5912838 CC/C were protective genotypes. When analyzed by sex, rs3827440 TT and rs5912838 AA were susceptible and rs3827440 CC and rs5912838 CC were protective genotypes in female AITD, GD, GD-TAO, and GD-non-TAO subjects. In male AITD patients, rs3827440 T and rs5912838 A were susceptible and rs3827440 C and rs5912838 C were protective genotypes. (4) Conclusions: Polymorphisms in GPR174 and ITM2A genes on the X chromosome might be associated with AITD in Korean children.
