Thyroid cancer as one of the most prevalent malignancies of endocrine system, has raised public concern and more research on its mechanism and treatment. And metabolism-based therapies have advanced rapidly, for the exclusive metabolic profiling of thyroid cancer. In thyroid cancer cells, plenty of metabolic pathways are reprogrammed to accommodate tumor microenvironment. In this review, we initiatively summarize recent progress in the full-scale thyroid cancer metabolic rewiring and the interconnection of various metabolites. We also discuss the efficacy and prospect of metabolic targeted detection as well as therapy. Comprehending metabolic mechanism and characteristics of thyroid cancer roundly will be highly beneficial to managing individual patients.

This study investigates whether ocular motor cranial neuropathy (OMCN) can predict the onset of thyroid cancer given its association with common cardiovascular risk factors including obesity, diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension, and dyslipidemia. We conducted a retrospective, nationwide, population-based cohort study utilizing data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service. Individuals comprised those aged ≥ 20 years diagnosed with OMCN between 2010 and 2017.

Breast cancer is a prevalent and highly heterogeneous malignancy that continues to be a major global health concern. Voltage-gated sodium channels are primarily known for their role in neuronal excitability, but emerging evidence suggests their involvement in the pathogenesis of various cancers, including breast cancer. However, the effect of β-subunits on breast cancer cells is not yet studied.

Background: Thyroid cancer is a prevalent malignant tumor, especially with a higher incidence in women. Tumor microenvironment changes induced by inflammation and alterations in metabolic characteristics are critical in the development of thyroid cancer. Nevertheless, their causal relationships remain unclear.

This study unveils PKM2 as a master metabolic coordinator in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), governing the glycolysis-lipolysis balance through the AMPK/KLF4/ACADVL axis. We demonstrate stage-specific PKM2 upregulation in TNBC, with CRISPR/Cas9 knockout inducing dual metabolic reprogramming-suppressed glycolysis and activated lipid catabolism. Mechanistically, PKM2 ablation triggers AMPK-dependent nuclear translocation of KLF4, which directly activates ACADVL (mitochondrial β-oxidation rate-limiting enzyme), explaining lipid droplet depletion.

Purpose: Traditional methods, fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) and washout thyroglobulin (Tg), do not always provide sufficient accuracy for diagnosing lymph node (LN) metastasis in thyroid cancer. This study aimed to validate the diagnostic performance of washout cytokeratin fragment 21-1 (CYFRA 21-1) as a complementary biomarker for diagnosing metastatic LNs in thyroid cancer and to explore its relationship with molecular analysis and distant metastasis.
Patients And Methods: In this retrospective cohort study involving 230 LNs in 224 patients with PTC, FNAC, washout Tg, and CYFRA 21-1 levels were measured in suspicious LNs.
