Abstract:
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of short endogenous non-coding RNAs regulating gene expression in many biological processes, including proliferation, apoptosis and differentiation. The deregulation of miRNA expression is believed to be an important regulator of tumor development and progression of thyroid cancer. In this review, we discussed important roles and expression profiles of miRNA in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) as well as the promising implication in clinical practice.

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...
