Post-translational Regulation of Radioactive Iodine Therapy Response in Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma.

Background: Radioactive iodine (RAI) is the mainstay of treatment for differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC). Nevertheless, the mechanism of RAI resistance that occurs in many patients with DTC remains unknown. We aimed to elucidate the role of post-translational regulation of radioiodine uptake.
