摘要：
Statins are traditionally used in patients with hypercholesterolemia and cardiovascular disorders. More recently, however, statins have been shown to exert pleiotropic effects on cell proliferation, survival, and migration, which suggests they could have chemopreventive properties. The author of this Viewpoint proposes that statins might have therapeutic potential in thyroid proliferative disease.
