To study the association between radioiodine refractory papillary thyroid carcinoma, sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) expression, and the mutation.
A study was conducted on 30 radioiodine refractory papillary thyroid carcinoma patients and 30 radioiodine-avid papillary thyroid carcinoma patients. The expressions of sodium/iodide symporter and mutated protein were determined by immunohistochemistry using formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue.
The mutated protein was identified in 26 radioiodine refractory papillary thyroid carcinoma subjects (86.7%) and 22 radioiodine-avid papillary thyroid carcinoma subjects (73.3%), with no significant difference between the 2 groups ( = 0.3). Sodium/iodide symporter expression was detected in 4 of 30 cases (13.3%) from the radioiodine-avid papillary thyroid carcinoma group but was negative for all radioiodine refractory cases. There was no association between sodium/iodide symporter expression and radioiodine refractory papillary thyroid carcinoma ( = 0.11). Cases with positive NIS expression were likely negative for mutation (3/4; = 0.02).
Papillary thyroid carcinomas with mutation were more likely to be negative for NIS expression. mutation and NIS expressions cannot be used to predict radioiodine sensitivity.
研究放射性碘难治性甲状腺乳头状癌、钠/碘同向转运体(NIS)表达与[具体基因名称]突变之间的关联。
对30例放射性碘难治性甲状腺乳头状癌患者和30例放射性碘摄取型甲状腺乳头状癌患者进行研究。使用福尔马林固定、石蜡包埋组织,通过免疫组织化学法测定钠/碘同向转运体和[具体基因名称]突变蛋白的表达。
在26例(86.7%)放射性碘难治性甲状腺乳头状癌患者和22例(73.3%)放射性碘摄取型甲状腺乳头状癌患者中检测到[具体基因名称]突变蛋白,两组之间无显著差异(P = 0.3)。放射性碘摄取型甲状腺乳头状癌组30例中有4例(13.3%)检测到钠/碘同向转运体表达,但所有放射性碘难治性病例均为阴性。钠/碘同向转运体表达与放射性碘难治性甲状腺乳头状癌之间无关联(P = 0.11)。NIS表达阳性的病例[具体基因名称]突变可能为阴性(3/4;P = 0.02)。
发生[具体基因名称]突变的甲状腺乳头状癌更可能NIS表达为阴性。[具体基因名称]突变和NIS表达不能用于预测放射性碘敏感性。
