Ghrelin and obestatin in thyroid gland - immunohistochemical expression in nodular goiter, papillary and medullary cancer.
INTRODUCTION Previous studies analyzing ghrelin and obestatin expression in thyroid gland tissue are not unanimous and are mostly related to ghrelin. The role of ghrelin and obestatin in the thyroid gland appears very interesting due to their probable involvement in cell proliferation. Furthermore, since the thyroid gland is associated with the maintenance of energy balance, the relationship be...
متن کاملThyroid cancer in toxic and non-toxic multinodular goiter.
BACKGROUND Many authors have claimed that hyperthyroidism protects against thyroid cancer and believed that the incidence of malignancy is lower in patients with toxic multinodular goiter (TMG) than in those with non-toxic multinodular goiter. But in recent studies, it was reported that the incidence of malignancy with TMG is not as low as previously thought. AIM To compare the thyroid cancer...
متن کاملDifferential expression patterns of estrogen receptor (ER)-β splice variants between papillary thyroid cancer and nodular thyroid goiter
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the expression patterns of estrogen receptor (ER) β1 (wild-type ERβ) and ERβ2 (ERβcx) in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) and nodular thyroid goiter (NTG), and to explore the reasons for the higher incidence of PTC in women of reproductive age. MATERIAL/METHODS ERβ1 and ERβ2 expression was examined immunohistochemically on paraffin-embedded th...
متن کاملThyroid hemiagenesis associated with retrosternal nodular goiter: a case report.
Thyroid hemiagenesis can be associated with various thyroid pathologies such as papillary thyroid cancer or nodular goiter. However, we did not encounter any publication in the literature in which hemiagenesis could be observed together with retrosternal goiter. In this report, a thyroid hemiagenesis associated with a benign nodular goiter extending retrosternally is reported. A 59-year-old mal...
متن کاملCytophotometric expression of Caspase-3 in papillary thyroid carcinoma in nodular goiter colloid.
OBJECTIVE To describe quantitative cytophotometric expression of the marker caspase-3 in colloid goiter and in papillary carcinoma of the thyroid, comparing the immunoexpression between them. METHODS An immunohistochemistry study has been made on the protein caspase-3 in 17 of paraffin blocks of papillary carcinoma of the thyroid and 20 cases of colloid goiter, using SAMBA 4000 ® (System of M...
