Background: It has been reported that CBP/p300-Interacting Transactivator with glutamic acid [E]/aspartic acid [D]-rich C-terminal domain 1 (CITED1) is overexpressed in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). However, the functional significance and underlying mechanisms of CITED1 in PTC are largely unknown.
Methods: The Cancer Genome Atlas dataset and real-time PCR were used to determine the expression of CITED1 in PTC. The role of CITED1 in PTC cell proliferation was determined conducted using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT), colony formation, 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) incorporation, and flow cytometry assays in vitro, and a subcutaneous xenotransplantation tumor model in nude mice was established to analyze tumor growth in vivo. We studied the potential mechanisms underlying the contribution of CITED1 to PTC proliferation using western blotting and luciferase assays.
Results: We found that CITED1 was highly expressed in PTC. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that CITED1 was involved in PTC cell proliferation and tumorigenesis. Then, gain- and loss-of-function experiments revealed that CITED1 decreased the expression of p21 and p27, and thereby increased the phosphorylation of pRb as well as E2F1 transcriptional activity.
Conclusions: Our results suggest that CITED1 is overexpressed in PTC and that CITED1 promotes the proliferation of PTC cells via the regulation of p21 and p27, which indicates that CITED1 might be a potential therapeutic target in the treatment of PTC.

Molecular genetic events are among the numerous factors affecting the clinical course of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Recent studies have demonstrated that aberrant expression of miRNA, as well as different thyroid-related genes, correlate with the aggressive clinical course of PTC and unfavorable treatment outcomes, which opens up new avenues for using them in the personalization of the treatment strategy for patients with PTC. In the present work, our goal was to assess the applicability of molecular markers in the preoperative diagnosis of aggressive variants of papillary thyroid cancer.

This study aims to investigate the effect of silencing the CITED1 gene to regulate the PI3K/AKT pathway on the biological function of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) cells and its mechanism of action. Human PTC cells SW1736 were divided into 4 groups: control group, siCITED1 group, LY294002 group and siCITED1+LY294002 group. CITED1 was silenced by transfection with siCITED1 plasmid.

Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), accounting for more than 80 percent of all cases of thyroid cancer, is a form of a cancerous tumor that has a very favorable prognosis. However, patients diagnosed with PTC who are already in an advanced state have a dismal outlook. This study aimed to establish the diagnostic relevance of PRR15 expression in PTC patients as well as its levels in PTC samples and its connection with immune infiltrates.

Purpose: The expression of Cbp/p300-interacting transactivator with Glu/Asp-rich carboxy-terminal domain 1 (CITED1) is upregulated in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and mediates cell proliferation and migration. To facilitate early diagnosis and monitoring of recurrent or metastatic PTC, we designed Lu-labeled antisense peptide nucleic acid (PNA) targeting CITED1 mRNA to evaluate the therapeutic potential, while analyzing its distribution in nude mice and the characteristics withsingle-photon emission-computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) imaging.
Materials And Methods: Lu-DOTA-anti-CITED1-PNA (Lu-asPNA) was obtained by indirect labeling.

Purpose: The incidence rate of thyroid cancer, the most common endocrine malignancy, has increased rapidly over the past 10 years. However, the fundamental molecular mechanisms underlying the malignant progression of thyroid cancer are unclear.
Materials And Methods: Firstly, quantitative real-time PCR analysis and Western blot analysis were used to investigate the expression of Cbp/p300 interacting transactivator with Glu/Asp rich carboxy-terminal domain 1 (CITED1) in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) cell lines.
