## Abstract ## Background. Gene therapy that uses delivery of the sodiumβiodide symporter (NIS) gene followed by radioiodide administration has been proposed as a novel form of radiotherapy for nonthyroidal cancers. ## Methods. In vitro [^125^I] iodide accumulation and efflux from cells was dete
## Abstract The sodium iodide symporter (NIS) mediates iodide uptake into the thyroid. Because of this mechanism, differentiated thyroid cancer is susceptible for radioiodine therapy. Functional NIS expression in extrathyroidal tumors has been reported mainly in breast cancer. We screened colorecta
