Integrated analysis identifies DUSP5 as a novel prognostic indicator for thyroid follicular carcinoma

Abstract

Differentiated thyroid cancer involves thyroid follicular carcinoma (FTC) and papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Patients with FTC have a worse prognosis than those with PTC for early metastasis through blood of FTC. However, the mechanism of poor prognosis of FTC is still unclear. Here, we aim to evaluate the role of DUSP5 in the prognostic evaluation of FTC.
