Background: Cystathione β-synthase (CBS) catalyzes the conversion of homocysteine and cysteine to hydrogen sulfide (HS) and cystathione, via the trans-sulfuration pathway. CBS protein expression levels are increased in several different human malignancies, with increased protein expression correlating with parameters such as tumor stage, anaplasia, metastases, and chemotherapy resistance.
Materials And Methods: This study employed tissue microarrays to examine CBS expression in benign thyroid tissue, thyroid oncocytomas, thyroid follicular adenomas, and in follicular, papillary, anaplastic, and medullary thyroid carcinomas.
