GO/noGO tasks enable assessing decision-making processes and the ability to suppress a specific action according to the context. Here, rats had to discriminate between 2 visual stimuli (GO or noGO) shown on an iPad screen. The execution (for GO) or nonexecution (for noGO) of the selected action (to touch or not the visual display) were reinforced with food.

In recent years, there has been an increasing number of studies on lncRNAs in PTC. Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 887 (LINC00887) is a critical oncogene in developing other cancers.

- Thyroid carcinoma (TC) includes two main types: medullary (MTC) and non-medullary (NMTC), with familial cases being rare, especially in MTC (less than 1%) and NMTC (3-9%).
- A study analyzed the genetic data of 58 individuals from 18 Spanish families with familial NMTC and MTC, identifying 53 rare genetic variants in 12 families, some linked to known TC-associated genes.
- The findings suggest potential new genes associated with TC and highlight biological processes important for cancer development, paving the way for early detection, personalized treatments, and improved patient care.
