Expression of the Na+/I- Symporter Gene in Human Thyroid Tumors: A Comparison Study with Other Thyroid-Specific Genes
1999-09-01
Abstract excerpt
The expression of 4 thyroid tissue-specific genes [Na(+)/I(-) symporter (NIS), thyroid peroxidase (TPO), thyroglobulin (Tg), TSH receptor (TSH-R)] as well as of the glucose transporter type 1 (Glut1) gene was analyzed in 90 human thyroid tissues. Messenger ribonucleic acids were extracted from 43 thyroid carcinomas (38 papillary and 5 follicular), 24 cold adenomas, 5 Graves' thyroid tissues, 8 toxic adenomas, and...
