Recently, the incidence of thyroid cancer is increasing worldwide. Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common histological type of thyroid cancer. Whole-transcriptome sequence analysis was performed to further understand the primary molecular mechanisms of the occurrence and progression of PTC. Results showed that Eva-1 homolog A (EVA1A) may be a potential gene for the PTC-associated gene in thyroid cancer. In this work, the role of EVA1A expression in thyroid cancer was investigated. Real-time PCR was performed to detect the expression level of EVA1A in 43 pairs of PTC and four thyroid cancer cell lines. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database was used to evaluate the relationship between the expression level of EVA1A and the pathological feature of PTC. The logistic regression analysis of the TCGA data set indicated that the expression of EVA1A was an independent risk factor for tumour, nde and metastasis (TNM) in PTC. This study shows the down-regulation of EVA1A inhibited the colony formation, proliferation, migration and invasion of PTC cell lines. In the protein level, knockdown of EVA1A can regulate the expression of N-cadherin, vimentin, Bcl-xL, Bax, YAP and TAZ. This study indicated that EVA1A was an oncogene associated with PTC.

The management of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) concurrent with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) lacks standardized guidelines, especially concerning surgical strategies. This study aimed to compare unilateral thyroidectomy (UT) with total thyroidectomy (TT) in PTC-HT patients to optimize clinical management and improve postoperative outcomes. This retrospective study included PTC-HT patients undergoing thyroid surgery at a tertiary academic medical institution from January 2018 to August 2023.

Thyroid nodules are a common endocrine condition with an increasing incidence over the decades. Data-independent acquisition has been widely utilized in discovery proteomics to identify disease biomarkers and therapeutic targets. To analyze the thyroid disease-related proteome in a high-throughput, reproducible and reliable manner, we introduce thyroid-specific peptide spectral libraries.

Breast cancer is the most prevalent malignant tumour among women. Approximately 70 % of patients are hormone receptor (HR)-positive and undergo endocrine therapy as the main form of treatment; however, the efficacy of this type of therapy is limited by some factors, such as drug resistance and complex tumour microenvironments. Using network pharmacology and molecular docking, this study examined how CDK4/6 inhibitors enhance the effects of immunotherapy for HR-positive breast cancer, focusing on their effects on the tumour microenvironment (TME) and immune cell activity.

Rearranged during transfection (RET) kinase is a validated therapeutic target for various cancers characterized by RET alterations. Although two selective RET inhibitors, selpercatinib and pralsetinib, have been approved by the FDA, acquired resistance through solvent-front mutations has been identified rapidly. Developing proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) targeting RET mutations offers a promising strategy to combat drug resistance.

Objective: To comprehensively investigate the predictive value of thyroid hormone sensitivity parameters for cervical lymph node metastasis in patients diagnosed with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) undergoing total thyroidectomy and neck lymph node dissection.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted involving patients diagnosed with DTC and evaluated for cervical lymph node metastasis. Relevant demographic, tumour, lymph node and thyroid hormone sensitivity parameter data were extracted from medical records and laboratory reports.
