Consistently, coordinated expression of Cav1 and Gal3 is observed in differentiated thyroid cancer-derived cell lines and siRNA knockdown assays in the same cell lines show that both Cav1 and Gal3 are required to promote FAK stabilization in FAs and cell migration compared to benign thyroid lesion-derived cells [31]. The gene discussed is CAV1; the disease is thyroid gland carcinoma.
