SIX1 expression and its clinicopathological significance: difference between classic and follicular variant papillary thyroid carcinoma

20241 citationOpen accessMinia University

Abstract

The findings of this study indicate that SIX1 expression is a marker of poor prognosis in PTC, suggesting that its high expression is linked with more aggressive tumor characteristics and advanced disease stages. Importantly, the impact of SIX1 expression varies between C-PTC and FV-PTC, predicting distinct prognostic factors in each subtype. This suggests that SIX1 could be utilized not only as a prognostic biomarker but also in developing subtype-specific therapeutic strategies for PTC patients.
