Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is frequently the outcome of oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF), a common possibly premalignant disease. In our study, a cohort of 50 patients with OSCC and OSMF, along with 50 healthy controls, was analyzed to identify significant metabolic differences between the...
BACKGROUND: Drug addiction can seriously damage human physical and mental health, while detoxification is a long and difficult process. Although studies have reported changes in the oral microbiome of methamphetamine (METH) addicts, the role of the microbiome plays in this proces...
Despite lipid metabolic changes in oral cancer (OC), their potential as diagnostic markers remains unclear. This study assessed the diagnostic potential of metabolites for OC detection. Plasma metabolites of patients with OC and healthy controls (HC) were profiled using untargeted and targeted me...
Bacterial metabolism in oral biofilms is comprised of complex networks of nutritional chains and biochemical regulations. These processes involve both intraspecies and interspecies networks as well as interactions with components from host saliva, gingival crevicular fluid, and dietary intake. In...
Background and Purpose: Previous studies have reported that oral low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) ameliorated colitis by undefined mechanisms in ulcerative colitis (UC) patients. Our study explored the mechanisms of LMWH on colitis from the perspective of gut microbiota and its metabolites.
Mechanistic study of the effects of salivary components from OSCC patients on tumor growth using a mouse model of oral squamous cell carcinoma
