Dysregulation of the long noncoding RNA GAS5 in human cancer has been identified in recent studies. In this study, we confirmed a negative correlation between the GAS5 expression level and papillary thyroid carcinoma clinicopathologic characteristics, such as the tumor size, lymph node metastasis, the TNM stage and BRAF mutation. The viability and metastasis of papillary thyroid carcinoma cells were detected by CCK-8 and transwell assays, respectively. The results showed that upregulation of GAS5 significantly inhibited papillary thyroid cancer cell growth, migration and invasion in vitro. RNA transcriptome sequencing was performed to explore the underlying targets of GAS5. Through qRT-PCR and Western blot analysis, we found that ectopic expression of GAS5 significantly increased IFI44 and STAT1 levels. Taken together, these findings suggest that GAS5 is a tumor suppressor in papillary thyroid carcinoma, and the action of GAS5 may be mediated through the IFNγ/STAT1 signaling pathway.

The carboxyl-terminus of Hsp70-interacting protein (CHIP) plays crucial roles in tumorigenesis and immunity, with previous studies suggesting a double-edged sword in thyroid cancer. However, its precise functions and underlying molecular mechanisms in thyroid cancer remained unclear. Here, we demonstrate through immunohistochemistry (IHC) that CHIP expression progressively increases from normal thyroid tissue to primary papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and lymph node metastases, with CHIP levels positively correlating with lymph node metastasis ( = 0.

The incidence of thyroid cancer has shown marked increases globally over recent decades. This study investigated how the incidence of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) subtypes and World Health Organisation (WHO) endocrine tumour classification changes have affected overall thyroid cancer incidence recorded in Australia. Using incidence data from the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare cancer registry (spanning 1982 to 2019), this descriptive epidemiological study employed joinpoint regression analysis to assess temporal trends in thyroid carcinoma incidence, focusing on PTC.

The longest reported follow-up for thermal ablation of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) is 5 years. We evaluated the long-term efficacy and safety of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in patients with low-risk PTMC with clinical follow-up of more than 10 years. In this retrospective cohort study, we included patients with low-risk PTMC who had more than 10 years of follow-up after ultrasound (US)-guided RFA (performed between May 2008 and December 2013).

Summary: Oral levothyroxine (LT4) is prescribed worldwide for hypothyroidism. Bariatric surgery for patients with obesity has shown a substantial, long-term weight loss and considerable improvement of obesity-related diseases. LT4 malabsorption represents a significant cause of refractory hypothyroidism, well known after malabsorptive bariatric surgery such as Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.

Background: KI-67 (MKI-67 in humans) is a protein able to bind to DNA which contributes to cell growth and cell proliferation. KI-67 is currently considered as a biomarker that is widely utilized as prognostic indicator for evaluating cell proliferation, diagnosing diseases, and conducting research. Several different kinds of cancer have high Ki-67 expression, which simplifying the choice of treatment for individuals with various cancer types.
