Expression of ADAMTS2 and ADAMTS5 in the salivary gland of rats after radioiodine therapy

Conclusion An increase in the mRNA expression levels of ADAMTS2 and ADAMTS5 genes was detected in the RAI-administered groups. These results suggested that ADAMTS2 and ADAMTS5 genes might play a role in radiation exposure and radioiodine-induced SG changes.
