The Role of Claudin-1 Expression in Follicular and Papillary Thyroid Neoplasm

Objective: This study evaluated differences in Claudin-1 expression between follicular adenoma (FA), follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC), follicular variant papillary thyroid carcinoma (FV-PTC), and papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Material and methods: This study used a cross-sectional approach. Immunostaining using the polyclonal antibody Claudin-1 was performed on 75 samples divided into 20 samples for follicular adenoma, follicular thyroid carcinoma, papillary carcinoma
