  • Genetics of Familial Non-Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma (FNMTC)
    cancers Review Genetics of Familial Non-Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma (FNMTC) Chiara Diquigiovanni * and Elena Bonora Unit of Medical Genetics, Department of Medical and Surgical Sciences, University of Bologna, 40138 Bologna, Italy; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +39-051-208-8418 Simple Summary: Non-medullary thyroid carcinoma (NMTC) originates from thyroid follicular epithelial cells and is considered familial when occurs in two or more first-degree relatives of the patient, in the absence of predisposing environmental factors. Familial NMTC (FNMTC) cases show a high genetic heterogeneity, thus impairing the identification of pivotal molecular changes. In the past years, linkage-based approaches identified several susceptibility loci and variants associated with NMTC risk, however only few genes have been identified. The advent of next-generation sequencing technologies has improved the discovery of new predisposing genes. In this review we report the most significant genes where variants predispose to FNMTC, with the perspective that the integration of these new molecular findings in the clinical data of patients might allow an early detection and tailored therapy of the disease, optimizing patient management. Abstract: Non-medullary thyroid carcinoma (NMTC) is the most frequent endocrine tumor and originates from the follicular epithelial cells of the thyroid. Familial NMTC (FNMTC) has been defined in pedigrees where two or more first-degree relatives of the patient present the disease in absence of other predisposing environmental factors. Compared to sporadic cases, FNMTCs are often multifocal, recurring more frequently and showing an early age at onset with a worse outcome. FNMTC cases Citation: Diquigiovanni, C.; Bonora, E.

  • ENDOCRINE SYSTEM the Nervous and Endocrine Systems Act Together to Coordinate Functions of All Body Systems
    ENDOCRINE SYSTEM The nervous and endocrine systems act together to coordinate functions of all body systems. Recall that the nervous system acts through nerve impulses (action potentials) conducted along axons of neurons. At synapses, nerve impulses trigger the release\ of mediator (messenger) molecules called neurotransmitters The endocrine system also controls body activities by releasing mediators, called hormones, but the means of control of the two systems are very different A hormone (hormon _ to excite or get moving) is a mediator molecule that is released in one part of the body but regulates the activity of cells in other parts of the body. Most hormones enter interstitial fluid and then the bloodstream. The circulating blood delivers hormones to cells throughout the body. Both neurotransmitters and hormones exert their effects by binding to receptors on or in their ―target‖ cells. Several mediators act as both neurotransmitters and hormones. One familiar example is norepinephrine, which is released as a neurotransmitter by sympathetic postganglionic neurons and as a hormone by chromaffin cells of the adrenal medullae. The body contains two kinds of glands: exocrine glands and endocrine glands. Exocrine glands (exo- _ outside) secrete their products into ducts that carry the secretions into body cavities, into the lumen of an organ, or to the outer surface of the body. Exocrine glands include sudoriferous (sweat), sebaceous (oil), mucous, and digestive glands. Endocrine glands (endo- _ within) secrete their products (hormones) into the interstitial fluid surrounding the secretory cells rather than into ducts. From the interstitial fluid, hormones diffuse into blood capillaries and blood carries them to target cells throughout the body.

Short Title: Thyroxine synthesis from dead cells 1 Complete absence of thyroid hormone is incompatible with life in vertebrates. Thyroxine is synthesized within thyroid follicles upon iodination of thyroglobulin conveyed from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), via the Golgi complex, to the extracellular follicular lumen. In congenital hypothyroidism from bi-allelic thyroglobulin mutation, thyroglobulin is misfolded and cannot advance from the ER, eliminating its secretion and triggering ER stress. Nevertheless, untreated patients somehow continue to synthesize sufficient thyroxine to yield measurable serum levels that sustain life.

  • Review: Molecular Thyroidology
    Annals of Clinical & Laboratory Science, vol. 31, no. 3, 2001 221 Review: Molecular Thyroidology William E. Winter and Maria Rita Signorino Department of Pathology, Immunology and Laboratory Medicine, University of Florida College of Medicine, Gainesville, Florida Abstract. Novel disorders involving aberrations of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid gland-thyroid hormone axis have been described in the last 5 to 10 years. The following topics are addressed: molecular mutations causing central hypothyroidism (isolated autosomal recessive TRH deficiency; autosomal recessive TRH-receptor inactivating mutations; TSH beta-subunit bio-inactivating mutations; Pit-1 mutations; Prop1 mutations; high molecular weight bio-inactive TSH); defects in response to TSH (mutations in the TSH receptor: TSH receptor gain-of-function mutations; TSH receptor loss-of-function mutations); defects in thyroid gland formation: transcription factor mutations (TTF-2 and Pax8); defects in peripheral thyroid hormone metabolism (defective intrapituitary conversion of T4 to T3; hemangioma consumption of thyroid hormone); and defects in tissue response to thyroid hormone (generalized thyroid hormone resistance, selective pituitary thyroid hormone resistance). While molecular diagnosis of such conditions is rarely indicated for clinical management, knowledge of the molecular mechanisms of these diseases can greatly enhance the clinical laboratory scientist’s ability to advise clinicians about appropriate thyroid testing and to interpret the complex and sometimes confusing results of thyroid function tests. (received 17 March 2001; accepted 20 March 2001) Key words: TRH, TRH receptor, TSH, TSH receptor, thyroid hormone receptor Introduction Normal Thyroid Function The goal of this review is to introduce the clinical The hypothalamus and anterior pituitary gland laboratorian to several recent advances in molecular thyrotrophs monitor free thyroid hormone levels in thyroidology.

It may also have a role in tumor development in these organs. The diagnostic utility of PAX 8 has not been comprehensively studied. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue samples for non-neoplastic tissues (n ¼ 1601), primary neoplasms (n ¼ 933), and metastatic neoplasms (n ¼ 496) were subjected to PAX 8 immunostain. In non-neoplastic tissues, PAX 8 was consistently noted in glomerular parietal epithelial cells, renal collecting ductal cells, atrophic renal tubular epithelial cells regardless of nephronic segments, and epithelial cells of the endocervix, endometrium, fallopian tube, seminal vesicle, epidydimis, thyroid, pancreatic islet cells, and lymphoid cells. PAX 8 was not seen in the rest of the tissue samples. In primary neoplasms, PAX 8 was expressed by 194 of 240 (89%) renal cell neoplasms, by 238 of 267 (89%) Mu¨ llerian-type neoplasms, by 65 of 65 (100%) thyroid follicular cell neoplasms, by 8 of 8 (100%) nephrogenic adenomas, and by 17 of 17 (100%) lymphomas.
