IGF-I influences everolimus activity in medullary thyroid carcinoma [PDF]
Context: Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a rare tumor originating from thyroid parafollicular C cells. It has been previously demonstrated that insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) protects MTC from the effects of antiproliferative drugs. Everolimus,

Identification of BCL2L11 as a Candidate Gene for Hereditary Predisposition to Non-Medullary Thyroid Cancer Using Familial Whole-Exome-Sequencing. [PDF]
Whole‐exome sequencing of five families with non‐medullary thyroid cancer revealed three candidate genes. Functional analyses confirmed BCL2L11 as a strong candidate gene for hereditary predisposition to non‐medullary thyroid cancer. ABSTRACT Familial non‐medullary thyroid cancer, defined as two or more affected first‐degree relatives, accounts for 3 ...
