Clinicopathological Significance of BRAF (V600E), NRAS (Q61K) and TERT (C228T, C250T and SNP Rs2853669) Mutations in Bulgarian Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma Patients
Introduction: Thyroid carcinoma is the most common endocrine cancer. Some somatic mutations in genes (BRAF, NRAS and TERT) involved in key signaling pathways and genome stability have been recently identified to play an important role in its development.

| Summary: | Introduction: Thyroid carcinoma is the most common endocrine cancer. Some somatic mutations in genes (BRAF, NRAS and TERT) involved in key signaling pathways and genome stability have been recently identified to play an important role in its development. Very little research has been done on their frequency and clinical relevance in Bulgarian patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). This study is focused on investigating somatic mutation frequency in Bulgarian patients with PTC and their association with clinicopathologic features. |
