We have previously shown that gene expression profiles of oral leukoplakia (OL) may improve the prediction of oral cancer (OC) risk. To identify new targets for prevention, we performed a systematic survey of transcripts associated with an increased risk of oral cancer and overexpressed
Background: Cigarette smoking is a major risk factor for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Still, the effect of cigarette smoke on the molecular level is unclear. The aim of the present study was to investigate the early effects of cigarette smoke on
BRLF1 (R) is one of two Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) immediate-early proteins that mediate the switch from the latent to the lytic form of viral replication. In this report, we show that R induces expression of the cellular C-mer gene in a variety of cell lines. C-mer expression was detected in
To evaluate the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), its tyrosine kinase receptor B (TrkB), and two downstream targets of this pathway, Akt and ribosomal protein S6 (RPS6), in normal oral mucosa (NOM), oral leukoplakia (OL), and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC)
