Abstract
⺠Mutations of thyroid hormone receptors (TRs) are associated with human cancers. ⺠Loss of TR normal functions by deletion or mutations contributes to cancer development. ⺠Mice harboring a homozygous mutation of TRβ spontaneously develop thyroid cancer. ⺠Nuclear and extra-nuclear actions of a TRβ mutant mediate thyroid carcinogenesis. ⺠Mouse models of thyroid cancer allow uncovering novel molecular targets for treatment.
