ABSTRACT Background Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common type of thyroid malignancy. While the prognosis of PTC is generally favorable, some cases exhibit aggressive behavior, leading to metastasis and recurrence. ASAP1 (ArfGAP with SH3, ankyrin repeats, and PH domain 1), an ADP‐ribosylation factor GTPase‐activating protein, has been ...

Bitter Taste Receptor Agonists Induce Apoptosis in Papillary Thyroid Cancer
ABSTRACT Background Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common thyroid malignancy, with a 20% recurrence rate. Bitter taste receptors (T2Rs) and their genes (TAS2Rs) may regulate survival in solid tumors. This study examined T2R expression and function in PTC cells.

Risks Associated With Extent of Surgical Management for Benign, Non‐Toxic Goiter
ABSTRACT Objectives Surgery for benign, non‐toxic thyroid goiter remains the most common indication for thyroidectomy worldwide, yet the optimal surgical extent remains controversial. While total thyroidectomy is assumed to have greater risks than lobectomy, the difference in complications has not been quantified. The objectives of this study are to (1)
