#1587 LRIG1 Was Down-Regulated in Medullary Thyroid Cancer but No Significant Effect of LRIG1 Was Found in RET2B Transgenic Mice and Human Differentiated Thyroid Cancer

Introduction: There are four main types of thyroid cancer, papillary (PTC), follicular (FTC), medullary (MTC), and anaplastic. In both PTC and MTC, genomic rearrangements and point mutations in the proto-oncogene RET are common. RET encodes a receptor tyrosine kinase that is negatively regulated by leucine-rich repeats and immunoglobulin-like domains-1 (LRIG1). LRIG1 gene status and mRNA and protein expression correlate with patient survival in different types of cancer.
