The search for new differentiating biomarkers in follicular-cell derived thyroid tumors (FCDT), especially for the FNAB with underdetermined cytology, is an important scientific task. Disturbed expression of tumor suppressor genes plays important role in thyroid carcinogenesis. In this study we focused on epigenetic mechanism influencing on trefoil factor 3 (TFF3) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 3 (TIMP3) expression.Aim of the study: Evaluatio...
