Abstract:
Several genomics-based techniques have been applied in the last decade to the molecular characterization of cancer, which has led to a variety of applications suitable for improved diagnosis, prognosis and prediction of outcome to treatment. Proteomics-based approaches have also been seen as crucial to the discovery of biomarkers for early diagnosis and prognosis of tumors, as well as for a better understanding of the molecular bases of cancer. Accordingly, proteomic techniques have been used extensively for a better molecular characterization of thyroid tumors. In this field, three main directions have been preceded: first, proteomic studies of model systems; second, proteomics of thyroid tumor specimens; and third, serum proteomics. In this review, we describe the most relevant results that have been obtained for tumors derived from thyroid follicular cells using various proteomic approaches.

Synthesis and Regulation of Thyroid Hormones
Upon reaching the thyroid gland, TSH stimulates the follicular cells' active uptake of iodide ions from the blood. The ions diffuse to the apical surface of the cells and are oxidized to iodine. The iodine is then...

Tumor Progression
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...
