Exploring the genetic links between voltage-gated potassium channels and famili...
Teixeira, Elisabete; Rodrigues, Lia; Cardoso, Marta; Fernandes, Cláudia; Paula, Arnaud da Cruz; Lima, Raquel; Ferreira, Marta; Martins, TeresaOur team identified a family where 5 elements developed thyroid cancer between the ages of 26 and 38. Since no syndromic form of the disease was found, the diagnosis was of familial non-medullary thyroid carcinoma (FNMTC). Our team employed Whole-Exome Sequencing (WES) and identified a new potentially pathogenic germline mutation in the KCNB2 gene [ p.(Gly106Arg)]. KCNB2 encodes a voltage-gated potassium channe...
A One pathology multicentre Portuguese approach to thyroid tumours of dogs and ...
Gaspar, Tiago; Borges, Inês; Canberk, Sule; Monteiro, Alexandra; Catarino, José; Pinto, Mafalda; Teixeira, Elisabete; Canadas-Sousa, Ana; Branco, SandraThyroid tumours are the most common endocrine tumours of dogs and cats. Feline thyroid tumours are essentially functional adenomas curable with thyroidectomy, whereas most canine thyroid tumours are non-functional carcinomas either unresectable or recurrent within two years in up 50%. The oncobiology of these tumours remains unclear, but investigating this aspect could contribute to the development of targeted ...
Facebook's features and the impact on the purchase behavior of consumers of org...
Teixeira, Elisabete; Lima, Ana; Teixeira, SandrinaIn the era of digital globalization, there are many behavioral changes in consumption. Most social media users use them to search for information about a product to determine whether they want to proceed with the purchase. Therefore, companies must develop digital marketing strategies for their profiles on social networks, especially in competitive markets, such as organic products. The objective of this study ...
