Expressions of estrogen receptor-β splicing variants in papillary thyroid cancer

Li J. , Dong W. , Huang H. , Zhang H. , Shan Y. , Teng P.

The purpose of the present study was to elucidate expressions of ERβ1 and ERβ2 expression in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). ER β splicing variants expressions were examined on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded thyroid tissues from 106 PTCs and 30 nodular thyroid goiters (NTGs) by immunehistochemical methods using Elivision plus two-step system. There was significant difference in the subcellular localization of ERβ1 expression (P<0.001), but not...
