Paulsson et al. (12) reported DGCR8 downregulation in follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) compared to FTA, and Rodrigues et al. (13) suggested DGCR8 mRNA overexpression in FTA might help maintain normal thyroid morphology, while reduced expression was implicated in dedifferentiation processes of follicular-patterned carcinomas. This evidence concerns the gene DGCR8 and thyroid cancer, nonmedullary, 2.
