TL;DR: The results indicate that the mammary gland sodium/iodide symporter may be an essential breast cancer marker and that radioiodide should be studied as a possible option in the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer.

TL;DR: The data indicate that picosecond-pulsed laser modification can be utilized effectively in low-cost laser surface engineering of medical implants, where different areas on the surface can be made cell-attachment friendly or hostile through the use of different patterns.

TL;DR: It is established that prnB expression is also activated during germination of conidiospores and the first report that an amino acid transporter gene is upregulated during development and in response to amino acid starvation and specific amino acid induction.

TL;DR: These studies show that (i) pathway-specific and wide-domain regulatory systems, previously shown to control prnB gene expression in multicellular mycelia, also operate in unicellular conidia committed to germination; and (ii) PrnB activity is regulated in response to the nitrogen source present in the medium and the level of internally accumulated proline or other amino acids.

TL;DR: An increase in TSH-R gene expression and radioiodine uptake with 5-Aza and rTSH increased RAI uptake significantly, and in short-term treatment, ATRA repressed NIS gene expression slightly, but in the long term, this repression turned to basal levels.
