Mechanistic study of the effects of salivary components from OSCC patients on tumor growth using a mouse model of oral squamous cell carcinoma
SOX2 is not only a pioneer transcription factor with critical roles in stem cell function and cell reprogramming but also a potent oncogene for a multitude of squamous cancers. How SOX2 exerts a potent oncogenic activity in squamous lineage is largely unknown. Here we uncovered SOX2 a p...
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...
