Functional Toll-like Receptor 4 Overexpression in Papillary Thyroid Cancer by MAPK/ERK–Induced ETS1 Transcriptional Activity
9 Mar 2018
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Emerging evidence suggests that unregulated Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling promotes tumor survival signals, thus favoring tumor progression. Here, the mechanism underlying TLR4 overexpression in papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTC) mainly harboring the BRAFV600E mutation was studied. TLR4 was overexpressed in PTC compared with nonneoplastic thyroid tissue. Moreover, paired clinical specimens of primary...
