Description

Description générale

TPC-1 is a widely published and well-characterized cell line isolated from a papillary thyroid carcinoma of a female patient (6). The genome of TPC-1 contains the RET/PTC1 rearrangement found in approximately 20% of sporadic papillary carcinomas in adults (2). TPC-1 harbors a silent polymorphism in H-RAS, and is wild-type for sequences of BRAF, CNBB1, EGFR, K-RAS, RAF-1, PI3K, and TRHB (3). TPC-1 cells produce thyroglobulin (Tg) as well as expressing the thyroid differentiation marker PAX8 and the tumor progression factor podoplanin (4). In addition, TPC-1 has been utilized as an in vitro model for human cytomegalovirus latency, a potential contributor for certain human cancers (5). The TPC-1 cell line is thus an excellent system for investigating mechanisms of thyroid carcinogenesis.

Thyroid cancer is the most prevalent endocrine carcinoma, with a rapidly increasing occurrence in many countries. Human models of differentiated thyroid cancer are highly valuable for assessing the pathways and mechanisms that contribute to thyroid carcinogenesis.
