Abstract:
Low-coverage whole genome sequencing was performed for tissue samples from thyroid patients who received surgery treatment from 2015 to 2021. The potential biological significance of CD147 protein in thyroid cancer was explored through correlation analysis of CD147 protein expression level and clinical features of thyroid cancer patients. Low coverage whole genome sequencing was performed on the extracted DNA samples. The copy number analysis software was used to analyze the sequencing data, calculate the copy number of CD147 gene, further verify the expression of CD147 gene, and analyze its association with clinical features. The relationship between CIN and high risk was evaluated in the internal cohort. The association of CIN with the disease-free survival was validated in the cohort from The Cancer Genome Atlas Program. Thyroglobulin plays a key role in regulating thyroid function and maintaining normal metabolic rate. By sequencing tissue samples from this study, we can gain a deeper understanding of the association between cin and thyroid disease. The percentage of high risk patients in the multiple CIN group (77.8 %) was significantly higher than that in the 22q negative group (31.3 %), BRAF V600E group (22.2 %) and all negative group (25.0 %; p = 0.043).

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...

When the function of certain critical genes, especially those involved in cell cycle regulation and cell growth signaling cascades, gets disrupted, it upsets the cell cycle progression. Such cells with unchecked cell cycles start proliferating uncontrollably and eventually develop into tumors.
