H, N, and K ras codons were examined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), single-stranded conformation polymorphism, and sequencing. The thyroid oncogene ret/PTC was identified by reverse transcription (RT)-PCR. Gene amplification of erbB-2/neu was analyzed by differential PCR. The transmembrane domain of erbB-2/neu was sequenced for activating mutations. Quantitation of erbB-2/neu mRNA was evaluated by competitive RT-PCR, and protein expression was determined by immunohistochemistry.\nRESULTS: Among 20 tumors, 3 had insular/anaplastic dedifferentiation, 13 were intrathyroidal, and 7 were metastatic to cervical lymph nodes (6) or lung (1). An H-ras 13 mutation was found in 1 metastatic tumor and an N-ras 61 mutation in 1 intrathyroidal tumor. ret/PTC was identified in 3 intrathyroidal and 5 metastatic tumors. No erbB-2/neu DNA amplification or mutations were identified, although 4 tumors had elevated erbB-2/neu mRNA levels. Three of 20 patients had abnormalities detected in multiple oncogenes; 2 had elevated erbB-2/neu mRNA and ret/PTC rearrangements, and 1 of these had pulmonary metastasis. An intrathyroidal papillary cancer had an N61 ras mutation and a ret/PTC gene rearrangement.\nCONCLUSIONS: ret/PTC rearrangements are present in 40% of papillary thyroid carcinomas and may play a role in metastatic behavior. In contrast, ras mutations are rare (10%). erbB-2/neu gene amplification and activating mutations are not detected, although elevated mRNA levels were found in 20% of papillary carcinomas. The lack of correlation among the 3 oncogenes in 17 of 20 (85%) papillary thyroid carcinomas suggests that they were not cumulative factors in the pathogenesis of these tumors.","tracks":[{"project":"DisGeNET","denotations":[{"id":"T0","span":{"begin":1715,"end":1718},"obj":"gene:4758"},{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":1832,"end":1852},"obj":"disease:C0007133"},{"id":"T2","span":{"begin":1715,"end":1718},"obj":"gene:9148"},{"id":"T3","span":{"begin":1832,"end":1852},"obj":"disease:C0007133"},{"id":"T4","span":{"begin":1715,"end":1718},"obj":"gene:2064"},{"id":"T5","span":{"begin":1832,"end":1852},"obj":"disease:C0007133"}],"relations":[{"id":"R1","pred":"associated_with","subj":"T0","obj":"T1"},{"id":"R2","pred":"associated_with","subj":"T2","obj":"T3"},{"id":"R3","pred":"associated_with","subj":"T4","obj":"T5"}],"namespaces":[{"prefix":"gene","uri":"http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/"},{"prefix":"disease","uri":"http://purl.bioontology.org/ontology/MEDLINEPLUS/"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"T0","pred":"source","obj":"DisGeNET"},{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"DisGeNET"},{"subj":"T2","pred":"source","obj":"DisGeNET"},{"subj":"T3","pred":"source","obj":"DisGeNET"},{"subj":"T4","pred":"source","obj":"DisGeNET"},{"subj":"T5","pred":"source","obj":"DisGeNET"}]},{"project":"PennBioIE","denotations":[{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":304,"end":307},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T2","span":{"begin":309,"end":312},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T3","span":{"begin":313,"end":316},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T4","span":{"begin":322,"end":328},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T5","span":{"begin":329,"end":332},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T6","span":{"begin":334,"end":335},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T7","span":{"begin":337,"end":338},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T8","span":{"begin":344,"end":345},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T9","span":{"begin":346,"end":349},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T10","span":{"begin":374,"end":384},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T11","span":{"begin":487,"end":490},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T12","span":{"begin":491,"end":494},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T13","span":{"begin":567,"end":573},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T14","span":{"begin":574,"end":577},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T15","span":{"begin":640,"end":646},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T16","span":{"begin":647,"end":650},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T17","span":{"begin":707,"end":713},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T18","span":{"begin":714,"end":717},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T19","span":{"begin":983,"end":988},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T20","span":{"begin":989,"end":991},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T21","span":{"begin":992,"end":1000},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T22","span":{"begin":1040,"end":1045},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T23","span":{"begin":1046,"end":1048},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T24","span":{"begin":1049,"end":1057},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T25","span":{"begin":1085,"end":1088},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T26","span":{"begin":1089,"end":1092},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T27","span":{"begin":1156,"end":1162},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T28","span":{"begin":1163,"end":1166},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T29","span":{"begin":1246,"end":1252},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T30","span":{"begin":1253,"end":1256},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T31","span":{"begin":1356,"end":1362},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T32","span":{"begin":1363,"end":1366},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T33","span":{"begin":1376,"end":1379},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T34","span":{"begin":1380,"end":1383},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T35","span":{"begin":1483,"end":1484},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T36","span":{"begin":1484,"end":1486},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T37","span":{"begin":1487,"end":1490},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T38","span":{"begin":1491,"end":1499},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T39","span":{"begin":1506,"end":1509},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T40","span":{"begin":1510,"end":1513},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T41","span":{"begin":1547,"end":1550},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T42","span":{"begin":1551,"end":1554},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T43","span":{"begin":1678,"end":1681},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T44","span":{"begin":1708,"end":1714},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T45","span":{"begin":1715,"end":1718},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T46","span":{"begin":1724,"end":1737},"obj":"protein"},{"id":"T47","span":{"begin":1890,"end":1899},"obj":"protein"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T2","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T3","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T4","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T5","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T6","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T7","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T8","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T9","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T10","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T11","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T12","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T13","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T14","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T15","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T16","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T17","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T18","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T19","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T20","pred":"source","obj":"PennBioIE"},{"subj":"T
