Clinical implications of TPO and AOX1 in pediatric papillary thyroid carcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Thyroid carcinoma is a common pediatric head and neck cancer, of which papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common type. Previously, we found that thyroid peroxidase (TPO) and aldehyde oxidase 1 (AOX1) were differentially expressed in PTC. This study explored the clinical importance of TPO and AOX1 in the diagnosis and prognosis of PTC in children.

Methods

Both TPO and AOX1 expression in PTC were analyzed using datasets from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). TPO and AOX1 protein levels in plasma from patients with PTC and non-tumor controls were detected via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The diagnostic accuracy of TPO and AOX1 was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. The as
