The increased expression or abnormal structure of oncogenes has been implicated in many
types of human tumors, including epithelial and medullary carcinomas of the thyroid. Some …

Recent advances in molecular and cell biology have improved our understanding of the
pathogenesis of thyroid cancer. This article reviews the factors that influence thyroid cell …

The development of cancer is due to the accumulation of multiple somatic mutations, in
some cases following germline mutations, which occur in hereditary malignancies such as …

Expression Patterns of Cellular Growth-Controlling Genes in Non-Medullary Thyroid Cancer:
Basic Aspects | Reviews in Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders Skip to main content SpringerLink …

A number of growth factors have been implicated as stimuli of thyroid cell proliferation;
overexpression of these growth factors and/or their receptors may play a role in the growth of …

Thyroid tumors represent an appropriate model for the study of the epithelial neoplastic
transformation. Indeed, different types of tumors (benign adenomas, differentiated and …

Although a minor cause of cancer mortality, thyroid tumors represent a simple and hence
powerful experimental model for studying the cell and molecular biology of tumorigenesis in …

In a study of growth regulation of the human thyroid gland and thyroid tumors we
investigated the impact of iodine and that of the thyroid-specific growth-stimulating hormone …

THYROID follicular cell tumors present a unique model for the study of genetic and
environmental factors predisposing to benign nodule formation, well differentiated malignant …

There have been significant advances in our understanding of carcinogenesis at the
molecular level over the last 25 years. Oncogenes are of major interest as part of our search …
