Secretome analysis of oral keratinocytes chronically exposed to shisha.

CONCLUSION: This study serves as a useful resource to understand the effect of chronic shisha smoking on the milieu of secreted proteins of oral cells. In vivo studies are warranted to supplement our in vitro data to elucidate the role of these proteins as early diagnostic biomarkers for oral carcinogenesis among shisha smokers.
