Radiation exposure of the thyroid at a young age is a recognized risk factor for the
development of differentiated thyroid cancer lasting for four decades and probably for a …

Second primary malignancies (SPMs) occurring after oncological treatment have become a
major concern during the past decade. Their incidence has long been underestimated …

DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are considered as one of the primary causes of cancer
but their induction by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is still controversial. In this work, we studied …

At physiological concentrations, reactive oxygen species (ROS), including superoxide
anions and H 2 O 2, are considered as second messengers that play key roles in cellular …

The thyroid gland is a unique endocrine organ that requires hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) for
thyroid hormone formation. The molecule for H2O2 production in the thyroid gland has been …

Improvements in cancer survival have made the long-term risks from treatments more
important, in particular among the children, adolescents and young adults who are more at …

This prospective study investigates the relationship between Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT)
and thyroid cancer (TC) in patients with thyroid nodules (TNs). We prospectively examined …

Background: Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) incidence increased dramatically in children
after the Chernobyl accident, providing a unique opportunity to investigate the molecular …

Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) etiologically occurs as a radiation-induced or sporadic
malignancy. Genetic factors contributing to the susceptibility to either form remain unknown …
