Abstract
Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) cells express oncofetal fibronectin (onfFN) mRNA, which may be useful to detect circulating tumor cells. The objective of this study was to determine the fraction of PTC patients having onfFN mRNA in their peripheral blood and to determine if onfFN mRNA levels are correlated with the status of the disease or with thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) serum concentrations.
