Evaluation of FGFR1 protein expression. Expression of FGFR1 in goiter, FA, FTC, PTC and UTC was analysed by employment of western blot analysis and evaluated densitometrically with ImageJ software. Protein expression was measured in relation to FTC133 as positive control and then normalized to the expression of ß-actin as normalizing marker. Differences are expressed in percent to positive control defined as 100%. *p < 0.05 indicates a statistical significance.
