%X <B>UNASSIGNED: </B>Previous studies have shown interindividual variation in free thyroxine (FT4) serum levels and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) in healthy persons. Genetic factors mainly determine this variation, and genome-wide association studies have increased the number of thyroid function-associated variants. The present study investigates the association of candidate variants with FT4 and TSH in a euthyroid Iranian population.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>A total of 2931 unrelated euthyroid subjects (FT4 10.29-21.88 pmol/L; TSH 0.32-10 mIU/L, thyroid peroxidase antibody TPOAb < 33 IU/mL in men and < 35 IU/mL in women), with available genotypes were chosen from the Tehran Thyroid Study (TTS), to examine the impact of selected SNPs on thyroid hormone under the additive genetic model. In order to evaluate regional associations with FT4 and TSH levels, a haplotype analysis was done.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>We identified a strong association between the rs4338740-C allele and TSH in the adjusted model (β = -0.095, P-value = 0.0004). Also, findings indicated that rs4954192 ACMSD and rs4445669 CADM1 correlated with normal TSH levels (P-value = 0.011, P-value = 0.014, respectively). Haplotype analysis revealed that two haplotypes were significantly associated with TSH levels in euthyroid individuals. The ACGA and AC haplotypes on chromosomes 8 and 14 were significantly correlated with normal TSH levels, respectively (P-value = 0.014, P-value = 0.016).<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>This is the first genetic association study with TSH and FT4 reference values in an Iranian population. Our findings indicate that a few gene variants associated with the reference values of TSH in other populations are also associated with the reference values of TSH in Iranians.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s40200-023-01383-2.
