KCNK15 and thyroid gland carcinoma: Results: We found that the mRNA expression of KCNK1, KCNK5, KCNK6, KCNK7, and KCNK15 were significantly higher in thyroid cancer tissues than that in normal tissues, while KCNK2, KCNK4, KCNK9, KCNK16 and KCNK17 mRNA levels were decreased compared to normal tissues.
