Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is generally a slow-growing disease with a favorable 10-year survival rate. However, about 10% of PTC cases show significant aggressiveness, with tendencies for local invasion or distant metastasis, the mechanisms of which remain unclear. This study aims to identify predictive indicators and explore new potential targets for clinical treatment, highlighting the need for novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

Aim: The study aimed to use network pharmacology research and experiments to investigate the material basis and molecular mechanisms of silybin in the treatment of papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Background: Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) has a decent prognosis; however, recurrence and metastasis are the leading causes of death in patients with PTC. A key research focus in thyroid cancer treatment is the inhibition of PTC proliferation, invasion, and migration.

Glucose metabolism-related genes play an important role in the development and immunotherapy of many tumours, but their role in thyroid cancer is ambiguous. To investigate the role of glucose metabolism-related genes in the development of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) and their correlation with the clinical outcome of PTC, we collected transcriptomic data from 501 PTC patients in the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). We performed nonnegative matrix decomposition clustering of 2752 glucose metabolism-related genes from transcriptome data and classified PTC patients into three subgroups (C1 for high activation of glucose metabolism, C2 for low activation of glucose metabolism and C3 for moderate activation of glucose metabolism) based on the activation of different glucose metabolism-related genes in 10 glucose metabolism-related pathways.

Background: Over the last two decades, several endoscopic thyroidectomy methods have been developed. However, there are some limitations in these procedures. To date, the optimal surgical approach for thyroid cancer has not yet been developed.
