概括
乙型乙烯受体3 (EphB3) 在大多数乳头甲状腺癌 (PTC) 和骨髓甲状腺癌 (MTC) 中表达高. 精细针吸收细胞学 (FNAC) 中的EphB3表达可以帮助区分甲状腺癌和良性结节.
科学领域:
- 在瘤学瘤学.
- 分子生物学分子生物学
- 病理学 病理学 病理学
背景情况:
- 甲状腺瘤需要准确的诊断生物标志物.
- 乙型乙烯受体3 (EphB3) 是各种癌症的潜在标记物.
研究的目的:
- 为了评估甲状腺瘤中的EphB3表达.
- 确定EphB3作为甲状腺瘤辅助诊断生物标志物的实用性.
主要方法:
- 通过使用EphB3抗体,对78个固定在甲,嵌入 (FFPE) 的组织样本和57个细针吸入细胞学 (FNAC) 样本进行了免疫组织化学检查.
- 皮肤状甲状腺癌 (PTC) 和其他甲状腺毛囊瘤之间的EphB3表达被比较.
- 桑格测序被用来检测BRAF V600E突变.
主要成果:
- 在81.8%的PTC和83.3%的MTC中,EphB3呈阳性.
- 在良性卵泡结节中,EphB3的表达显着较低 (例如,在超塑性/腺类结节中25%,在卵泡腺瘤中14.3%),在不确定的恶性瘤 (FT-UMP),NIFTP,卵泡癌,哈西莫托甲状腺炎和正常甲状腺组织的卵泡瘤中不存在.
- 在FNAC细胞块中,EphB3在87.1%的PTC和75%的MTC中呈阳性,但在不确定的重要性/不确定的重要性囊病变 (AUS/FLUS) 和正常的甲状腺细胞中呈阴性.
结论:
- 埃弗B3主要表达在恶性甲状腺瘤中,如PTC和MTC.
- 在良性甲状腺病变和某些前体病变中,EphB3的表达显著下降.
- 在FNAC中,EphB3可以作为一种有价值的辅助诊断工具,以区分甲状腺癌与良性卵泡病变,特别是AUS/FLUS.

Role of Ephrin-Eph Signalling in Intestinal Stem Cell Renewal
2.2K
Erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular carcinoma receptor (Eph) and its ligand, Eph receptor-interacting protein (Ephrin) were first discovered in the human carcinoma cell line, hence the name. Ephrin-Eph interaction guides cells to reach their appropriate location in adult tissues. They also play an essential role in the immune system by helping in immune cell migration, adhesion, and activation. Based on their structure and function, Eph is divided into two classes — EphA and EphB.

Synthesis and Regulation of Thyroid Hormones
4.6K
Low blood levels of the thyroid hormones — triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) — signal the hypothalamus to release the thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH). TRH then reaches the pituitary gland and stimulates the release of thyroid-stimulating hormone(TSH) into the bloodstream.
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...

Mitogens and the Cell Cycle
6.5K
Mitogens and their receptors play a crucial role in controlling the progression of the cell cycle. However, the loss of mitogenic control over cell division leads to tumor formation. Therefore, mitogens and mitogen receptors play an important role in cancer research. For instance, the epidermal growth factor (EGF) - a type of mitogen and its transmembrane receptor (EGFR), decides the fate of the cell's proliferation. When EGF binds to EGFR, a member of the ErbB family of tyrosine kinase...
