Description
- The genome of TPC-1 contains the RET/PTC1 rearrangement found in approximately 20% of sporadic papillary carcinomas in adults
- 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
- TPC-1 cells produce thyroglobulin (Tg) as well as expressing the thyroid differentiation marker PAX8 and the tumor progression factor podoplanin
- TPC-1 has been utilized as an in vitro model for human cytomegalovirus latency, a potential contributor for certain human cancers
- The TPC-1 cell line is thus an excellent system for investigating mechanisms of thyroid carcinogenesis
