Hopkins Researcher Links Gene Mutation With Poor Outcomes In People With Most Common Thyroid Cancer
9th Jan 2006, 08:17 GMT
Scientists at Johns Hopkins have found that a mutation in the gene that triggers production of a tumor growth protein is linked to poorer outcomes for patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). A report on the study is published in the December issue of The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism.
