Iodine-131 179-190 solute carrier family 5 member 5 Homo sapiens 64-67 24884806-4 2014 Moreover, stimulation of endogenous NIS expression may permit the radioiodine treatment of extrathyroidal lesions by concentrating this radioisotope. Iodine-131 66-77 solute carrier family 5 member 5 Homo sapiens 36-39
