MARKER FOR DIAGNOSING PAPILLARY THYROID CARCINOMA CONTAINING 3-INDOLEACETONITRILE AS AN ACTIVE INGREDIENT

摘要

The present invention relates to a marker for diagnosing papillary thyroid carcinoma, containing 3-indoleacetonitrile as an active ingredient. Since the concentrations of 3-indoleacetonitrile according to the present invention have a significantly high level of urine from patients with capillary thyroid carcinoma and a significantly low level of urine from normal people and a relatively simple method may be used to predict the diagnosis and prognosis of papillary thyroid carcinoma in the early stages thereof, the present invention may be useful as a marker for diagnosing papillary thyroid carcinoma.
