Expression of PAX8 Target Genes in Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma
PAX8 is a thyroid-specific transcription factor whose expression is dysregulated in thyroid cancer. A recent study using a conditional knock-out mouse model identified 58 putative PAX8 target genes. In the present study, we evaluated the expression of 11 of these genes in normal and tumoral thyroid tissues from patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). ATP1B1, GPC3, KCNIP3, and PRLR transcr...
متن کاملExpression of Estrogen and Progesterone Receptors in Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma
Background: Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), occurs mostly in women and sex hormones may play a role in the pathogenesis and clinical course. The objective of this study was to determine the status and prevalence of estrogen and progesterone receptors in PTC with regard to age, gender, tumor size and lymph node involvement. Methods: Immunohistochemical stains were performed on 92 tissue bl...

متن کاملExpression profiles of microRNAs and their target genes in papillary thyroid carcinoma.
The incidence of thyroid cancer has recently experienced a rapid increase in China, and papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) accounts for nearly 80% of human thyroid cancers. In the present study, the differential expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) and their target genes were identified in order to analyze the potential roles of miRNAs as biomarkers an...
متن کاملPromoter Methylation of Four Tumor Suppressor Genes in Human Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma
Background & Objective: Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is considered to be the most common type of thyroid malignancies. Epigenetic alteration, in which the chromatin conformation and gene expression change without changing the sequence of DNA, can occur in some tumor suppressor genes and oncogenes. Methylation is the most common type of epigenetic alterations that can be an ex...
