Abstract excerpt
Promoter hypermethylation of multiple genes have been identified to play a role in thyroid cancers and most prominent among them is TSHR gene promoter hypermethylation in particular showing a close association with BRAF gene-altered status. Thus, the aim of this study was to analyze the TSHR gene promoter hypermethylation in a series of thyroid tumor tissues in the backdrop of their BRAF gene mutational status....
