In addition, the pathogenesis of thyroid cancer is related to many signaling pathways, including nuclear factor‐κB (NF‐κB),10 Wnt/β‐catenin, phosphatidylinositol‐3‐kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt),11 and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 signaling pathway.12 Here, AKT1 is linked to thyroid cancer.
