Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is well known family occurring cancer disease. It is estimated, that ~5% of differentiated thyroid cancers (where PTC is the most frequent) are hereditary. Susceptibility genes are poorly known, however, recently some SNPs located on chromosome 9 in FOXE1 locus (rs965513) and on chromosome 14 (rs944289) close to NKX2-1 locus have been confirmed to be associated with PTC in different populations.The aim of our study was to a...
