Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information increased levels of TKTL1 transcript in tumors compared with their corresponding normal tissues. Positive correlation between TKTL1 protein expression in primary tumors and the number of metastatic lymph-nodes as well as the diameter of the largest metastatic area in lymph-nodes. High levels of TKTL1 transcript are a relevant phenomenon in small PTCs Homo sapiens

Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine TKTL1 overexpression in papillary thyroid carcinoma bigger than 1.5 cm may be considered a factor that facilitates tumor growth and progression. Significant association between TKTL1 protein expression and the presence of multifocality, bilaterality, extrathyroidal extension, vascular invasion, sclerosis, and lymph-node metastases Homo sapiens
