The mechanism of arsenic trioxide and microwave ablation in the treatment of oral squamous cell carcinoma based on high throughput sequencing.

ABSTRACT: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common head and neck malignant tumour with high incidence and poor prognosis. Arsenic trioxide (ATO) has therapeutic effects on solid tumours. Microwave ablation (MWA) has unique advantages in the treatment of solid tumours. However, the therapeutic mechanism of ATO and MWA, as well as their combined effect on OSCC were largely unelucidated. Cal-27 cell-bearing nude mice were treated with ATO and/or MWA, respectively. RNA sequencing was used to obtain gene expression profiles in tumour tissues of mice treated by ATO or MWA. RNA sequencing results were verified by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA co-expression network was constructed based on the competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) theory. Gene ontology and Kyoto Encycl
