High Prevalence of TBC1D12 5'UTR Mutations in Anaplastic Thyroid Cancer. (PubMed, Thyroid)
TBC1D12 5'UTR mutations were significantly associated with older age at diagnosis (60 vs. 46 for wild type, p = 0.003), pathological T3/T4 stage (85.7% vs. 37.7%, p = 0.010), and advanced tumor stages (85.7% vs. 32.5%, p = 0.006) in PTC. This preliminary study for the first time showed a high prevalence of TBC1D12 5'UTR mutations in ATC and indicated an association between TBC1D12 mutation and aggressive characteristics of PTC, which needs to be confirmed in large cohort studies.

Therefore, we clarify that SEMA3C exerts a tumor-promoting effect on thyroid cancer, and Wnt/β-catenin pathway is the critical downstream pathway.

DPP4 promotes an immunoenhancing tumor microenvironment through exhausted CD8+ T cells with activating IL13-IL13RA2 axis in papillary thyroid cancer. (PubMed, Int Immunopharmacol)
Blocking DPP4 leads to the conversion of exhausted CD8+ T cells with decreased IL13 level, resulting in downregulation of IL13RA2 to promote mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition of PTC cells. This highlights DPP4 as a potential therapeutic target, particularly between CD8+ T cells and PTC cells via IL13-IL13RA2 axis, and represents a novel avenue for combined immunotherapy in PTC.
