“…More detailed analyses have shown that assessing the presence of this marker will be the most effective in differentiating between NG and PTC. Hypothetically, the presence of the mutation in NG may indicate precancerous changes without detectable changes in cell phenotype, and it could be utilized in oncological risk evaluation [ 45 ]. The results of studies on the frequency of V600E mutations, depending on the clinical and pathological characteristics of the patients, still remain controversial.…”

Thyroid carcinoma is the primary endocrine malignancy worldwide. The preoperative examination of thyroid tissue lesion is often unclear. Approximately 25% of thyroid cancers cannot be diagnosed definitively without post-surgery histopathological examination. The assessment of diagnostic and differential markers of thyroid cancers is needed to improve preoperative diagnosis and reduce unnecessary treatments. Here, we assessed the expression of RASSF1A, DIRAS3, and AKAP9 genes, and the presence of BRAF V600E point mutation in benign and malignant thyroid lesions in a Polish cohort (120 patients). We have also performed a comparative analysis of gene expression using data obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database (307 samples). The expression of RASSF1A and DIRAS3 was decreased, whereas AKAP9’s was increased in pathologically changed thyroid compared with normal thyroid tissue, and significantly correlated with e.g., histopathological type of lesion papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) vs follicular thyroid cancer (FTC), patient’s age, tumour stage, or its encapsulation. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis for the more aggressive FTC subtype differential marker suggests value in estimating RASSF1A and AKAP9 expression, with their area under curve (AUC), specificity, and sensitivity at 0.743 (95% CI: 0.548–0.938), 82.2%, and 66.7%; for RASSF1A, and 0.848 (95% CI: 0.698–0.998), 54.8%, and 100%, for AKAP9. Our research gives new insight into the basis of the aggressiveness and progression of thyroid cancers, and provides information on potential differential markers that may improve preoperative diagnosis.

Objectives To determine the diagnostic value of HRAS, KRAS, and NRAS mutations in fine-needle aspiration biopsies of thyroid nodules that are nondiagnostic on cytology. Data Sources PubMed, Scopus, Embase, CINAHL. Review Methods Two authors independently searched the data sources. To be included, studies reported the RAS mutational status and postoperative histopathologic diagnosis of nodules that exhibited indeterminate cytology after fine-needle aspiration biopsy. Data were extracted to calculate sensitivity, specificity, and positive/negative predictive values of any HRAS, KRAS, or NRAS mutation. A meta-analysis was performed to generate pooled values for each parameter. Results A total of 7 studies with a combined 1025 patients met inclusion criteria. The pooled sensitivity of a RAS mutation for detecting cancer was 0.343 (95% confidence interval [95% CI], 0.198-0.506), while the pooled specificity was 0.935 (95% CI, 0.882-0.973). The weighted averages for positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 78.0% and 64.0%, respectively, with 68.0% accuracy. The positive likelihood ratio was 4.235 (95% CI, 1.506-11.910), and the negative likelihood ratio was 0.775 (95% CI, 0.630-0.953). Conclusion Our data suggest that testing for any RAS mutation is unlikely to change the clinical management of thyroid nodules that have indeterminate cytology. While a RAS mutation may rule in malignancy, the sensitivity of testing is low enough to merit further mutational analysis, repeat fine-needle aspiration, or surgical excision, even in the presence of a negative test.

Aim: It remains a challenge to accurately identify malignancy of thyroid nodules when biopsy is indeterminate. The authors aimed to investigate the abnormal DNA methylation signatures in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) compared with benign thyroid nodules (BTNs). Methods: The authors performed genome profiling by 850K array and RNA sequencing in early-stage PTC and BTN tissue samples. The identified gene was validated in two independent case–control studies using mass spectrometry. Results: Hypomethylation of RUNX1 in PTC was identified and verified (all odds ratios: ≥1.50). RUNX1 methylation achieved good accuracy in differentiating early-stage PTC from BTNs, especially for younger women. Conclusion: The authors disclosed a significant association between RUNX1 hypomethylation and PTC, suggesting RUNX1 methylation as a potential biomarker for companion diagnosis of malignant thyroid nodules.
