Lack of Correlation between<i>BRAF</i>V600E Mutational Status and the Expression Profile of a Distinct Set of miRNAs in Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma
15 Apr 2009
Abstract excerpt
Recent studies demonstrated a significant upregulation of distinct microRNAs (miRNAs), small endogenous RNAs that regulate gene expression, in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). In the pathogenesis of PTC the T1799A (V600E) BRAF mutation is the most common genetic alteration leading to a constitutive activation of the MAPK pathway. The aim of the present study was to elucidate a possible correlation between BRAF...
