Abstract

The thyroid is one of the largest endocrine glands in the body and of highest importance to healthy life by regulating energy metabolism, protein synthesis, and hormone sensitivity. Tumors of the thyroid are rare, accounting for only ~2% of all tumors being diagnosed worldwide. Remarkably, this cancer entity is more frequent in women than in men, with incidence ratios of approximately 3:1. This chapter will introduce the main features of thyroid cancer development, especially focusing on altered molecular signaling and epigenetic variations.
