Minichromosome maintenance (MCM) protein 4 overexpression is a potential prognostic marker for laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma.

CONCLUSIONS: We noticed a significant role for MCM4 overexpression in human LSCC tissues and their corresponding adjacent non-neoplastic tissues and found that siRNA of MCM4 can significantly decrease the proliferation of cancer cells. It is suggested that MCM4 profiling could potentially be used to predict response to treatment and prognosis in LSCC. PMID: 29135113 [PubMed - in process]
