ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of MUC1 in thyroid cancer and benign thyroid diseases (nodular goiter and adenoma) and its clinical significance. Methods The expression level of MUC1 was examined by immunohistochemical analysis with MUC1 monoclonal antibody in 68 samples of thyroid carcinoma and in 18 samples of benign diseases and 10 normal thyroid tissues. Results Immunohistochemical analysis showed positive expression of MUC1 in 51 out of 68 cases of thyroid cancer, in 4 out of 18 cases of benign thyroid diseases and 1 out of 10 normal control thyroid tissue, with a difference statistically significant between the malignancy and benign and normal control (? 2=17.20,P0.05).Conclusion The over-expression of MUC1 in thyroid cancer may act as diagnostic markers of thyroid carcinoma.
