BRAF mutation in thyroid cancer [PDF]
Genetic alteration is the driving force for thyroid tumorigenesis and progression, based upon which novel approaches to the management of thyroid cancer can be developed. A recent important genetic finding in thyroid cancer is the oncogenic T1799A transversion mutation of BRAF (the gene for the B-type Raf kinase, BRAF). Since the initial report of this

BRAF mutation is not predictive of long-term outcome in papillary thyroid carcinoma [PDF]
The BRAF mutation occurs commonly in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Previous investigations of its utility to predict recurrence-free survival (RFS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) have reported conflicting results and its role remains unclear ...

Background The BRAF V600E mutation is highly specific for papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). A test for this mutation can increase the diagnostic accuracy of fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC), but a considerably high false-negative rate for the BRAF

The Significance of TROP2 Expression in Predicting Mutations in Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma [PDF]
Background Trophoblast antigen 2 (TROP2) is a human trophoblast cell-surface glycoprotein that is overexpressed in several types of epithelial cancers, and is suggested to be associated with an unfavorable prognosis.

Mutations of the BRAF gene in human cancer [PDF]
Cancers arise owing to the accumulation of mutations in critical genes that alter normal programmes of cell proliferation, differentiation and death. As the first stage of a systematic genome-wide screen for these genes, we have prioritized for analysis ...

The Genomic Environment of BRAF Mutated and BRAF/PIK3CA Double Mutated Colorectal Cancers
Background: Colorectal cancer represents the most prevalent gastrointestinal malignancy. Prognosis of metastatic disease has improved in recent years with the introduction of effective systemic therapies, but mean survival remains in the range of two to three years.

Frequency of BRAF V600E Mutation in the Mexican Population of Patients With Metastatic Melanoma
Purpose: The BRAF V600E mutation has been described in melanomas occurring in the Caucasian, European, and Asian populations. However, in the Mexican population, the status and clinical significance of BRAF mutation has not been researched on a large ...

Targeting Oncogenic BRAF: Past, Present, and Future. [PDF]
Identifying recurrent somatic genetic alterations of, and dependency on, the kinase BRAF has enabled a "precision medicine" paradigm to diagnose and treat BRAF-driven tumors.
