Protein Kinase C alpha (PKC) is associated with progression and poor prognosis in head and neck cancer. Previous studies have demonstrated that PKC sustains the proliferative signal by increasing cyclin E expression, leading to enhanced E2F target gene transcription and DNA synthesis. Here we show ...

Patient selection and specimen collection. Thirty-six freshly frozen tumor samples were prospectively collected from patients undergoing surgery or biopsy for HNSCC at the University of North Carolina (UNC) at Chapel Hill (21 patients) and Vanderbilt University (15 patients). All tissues were snap-f...

Protein Kinase C alpha (PKC) is a critical mediator of cell signaling and cancer growth. We show that PKC inhibitors decrease proliferation in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) cells and abrogate growth of SCCHN tumors in mouse xenografts. Analysis of gene expression arrays reveal...

Recurrent and/or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) remains one of the most difficult cancers to treat with limited chemotherapeutic options. Here, we describe a patient with HNSCC who had complete response to methotrexate (MTX) after progressing on multiple cytotoxic agents; c...

60 fresh frozen HNSCC from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC) were obtained from the UNC Tissue Procurement Facility under an IRB approved protocol. 55 tumor samples were collected from the primary tumor and five tumor samples were collected from a local recurrence at the primary ...
