摘要
Abstract
Purpose To investigate the correlation between BRAF mutation and the biological behavior of the papillary thyroid carcino-ma( PTC ). Methods To collected 107 cases of the formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues from the patients with thyroid disease, that included 93 cases of PTC, 5 cases of thyroid follicular cancer, 1 case of medullary carcinoma and 8 cases of thyroid adenoma, and detected the BRAF mutation in the tissues by immumohistochemistry, nested-primer PCR and gene sequencing. Results In 93 cases of PTC, BRAF protein expressed in 30 cases, with positive rate of 32. 3 % , only in one case of thyroid follicular carcinoma the expression of BRAF protein was positive ( 20% ), and all negative in medullary carcinoma and thyroid adenoma. There were 30 ( 32. 3% , ) cases of BRAF mutation in 93 cases of PTC, and there were no BRAF mutation in the other type of the thyroid disease. The expression rate of BRAF protein and the BRAF mutation rate in the patients whose age was under 45 were significantly higher than whose age was over 45. And the expression rate of BRAF protein and the BRAF mutation rate of the patients whose tumor size was over 1 cm were significantly higher than whose tumor size was under 1 cm, and the difference was statistically significant ( P <0. 05 ). There was no significant relationship between BRAF protein expression, gender, lymph node metastasis, intravascular tumor thrombus, and infiltration outside of the glands, and there was no significant relationship between BRAF mutation, gender, lymph node metastasis, intravascular tumor thrombus, and infiltration outside of the glands. Conclusion BRAF mutation occurs only in PTC in this study, which may provide a new theoretical basis for the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of the PTC.关键词
