Introduction: Long pentraxin 3 (PTX3), a protein cells produce in response to several inflammatory stimuli, is essential in innate immunity, controlling inflammation, tissue remodeling, and cancer dynamics. PTX3 promotes the migration and invasion of cells in different tumor models. This study aims to (I) immunohistochemically assess the presence and distribution of PTX3 in tissue samples from non-medullary thyroid cancer (NMTC) and (II) (TC) to determine the differences of ci...
