Characterization of the Sodium Iodide Symporter Binding Sites [PDF]
Sodium iodide symporter (NIS) is a membrane protein responsible for accumulation of iodide (I-) in the thyroid and other organs. This is accomplished through active transports in which the sodium (Na+) gradient provides the driving force. In our approach we attempt to bring together the most recent finding on the NIS homologous systems and shine light ...

Modular breast and tumor perfusion phantoms for 4D dynamic contrast‐enhanced dedicated breast CT
Abstract Background Tumor heterogeneity presents significant challenges in breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. Four‐dimensional dynamic contrast‐enhanced dedicated breast CT (4D DCE‐bCT) is a novel imaging technique designed to capture contrast agent kinetics with high spatial and temporal resolution, enabling detailed assessment of tumor perfusion ...

A method to detect perchlorate ions and certify safe drinking water by constructing a fluorescence‐based logic gate considering the binding of a hemicyanine dye with β‐CD is presented. Perchlorate ions (ClO4−) are prevalent contaminants in the surface, and drinking water that disrupt thyroid function by competitively inhibiting the sodium‐iodide ...

PI3K activation is associated with intracellular sodium/iodide symporter protein expression in breast cancer [PDF]
Background: The sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) is a membrane glycoprotein mediating active iodide uptake in the thyroid gland and is the molecular basis for radioiodide imaging and therapeutic ablation of thyroid carcinomas.

Abstract The diagnostic classification of differentiated thyroid cancer has been a longstanding topic of debate among pathologists, largely due to high interobserver variability. This complexity has increased with the expansion of tumor types and subtypes.

Background Recently, 18F-tetrafluoroborate (TFB) was used as a substrate for the human sodium/iodide symporter (hNIS) reporter gene. This study evaluated the feasibility of performing molecular-genetic imaging by using the new radiotracer (18F-TFB) for ...

The NAS Perchlorate Review: Questions Remain about the Perchlorate RfD [PDF]
Human exposure to perchlorate is commonplace because it is a contaminant of drinking water, certain foods, and breast milk. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) conducted a perchlorate risk assessment in 2002 that yielded a reference dose (RfD)
