Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The study team previously shown that a cholesterol metabolite, dendrogenin A (DDA) differentiates anaplastic thyroid cancer cell lines and that its mRNA expression is diminished in human radioiodine refractory thyroid cancer samples. The team aim to quantify via mass spectrometry and immunohistochemistry DDA and other cholesterol metabolites in thyroid cancer versus healthy thyroid tissue human samples.
