BRAF V600E突变对甲状腺乳头状癌发生及预后的影响

摘要

Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common pathological type of thyroid cancer, always with favorable prognosis. However, the incidence of thyroid cancer recently appeared to be an increasing trend. Because of the increased amount of patients, refractory thyroid cancer was not rare anymore. Hence, we are facing a big challenge how to manage and treat the increasing number of patients.BRAF V600E mutation is a classic DNA-relative biomarker for PTC, and widely used in preoperative diagnosis and evaluation of prognosis. As a potential therapeutic target, it attracted more and more attention. RecognizingBRAF V600E mutation can help us to know oncogenesis and biological behavior of PTC better and provide proiftable treatment and management.%甲状腺乳头状癌(papillary thyroid cancer,PTC)是甲状腺癌最常见的病理类型.PTC通常预后良好,但近年来甲状腺癌的发病率逐年攀升.随着患病人数的不断增多,中晚期难治性甲状腺癌患者不再少见.因此,越发庞大的甲状腺癌患者群体的管理与诊治已成为巨大的考验.BRAF V600E基因突变是乳头状癌经典DNA相关标志物,目前已被广泛应用于甲状腺癌的术前诊断和预后评估,并且作为潜在的治疗靶点受到越来越多的关注.因此,正确全面的了解BRAF V600E基因突变可以帮助我们对PTC的发生、发展及生物学行为有更进一步的了解,并为PTC患者管理方式与治疗策略提供新的方向.
