The mucosae of the oral cavity are different at the histological level but are all exposed to common genotoxic agents. As a result of this exposure, changes in the mucosal epithelia develop giving rise to Oral Potentially Malignant Lesions (OPMLs), which with time may in turn progress to Oral Squamo...

The aim of the study was to address the concept of field cancerization in oral cancer. The presence of genomic aberrations, indicative of chromosomal instability (CIN), in oral distant fields (ODFs) of visually normal and non-dysplastic mucosa at the mirror image from concomitant oral potentially ma...

Mutations of the proto-oncogene KRas, together with the inactivation of the onco-suppressor genes APC and TP53, are considered to have an important role both in the carcinogenesis and in the colorectal tumor progression. The oncogene K-ras has activating mutations, especially in codon 12, in about ...

Oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) may precede oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Early detection of OPMDs has a crucial role in OSCC prevention. DNA aneuploidy and chromosomal aberrations are markers of genomic DNA damage and chromosomal instability (CIN), which is involved in cancer d...
