Role of tissue markers associated with tumor microenvironment in the progression and immune suppression of oral squamous cell carcinoma
Med Oncol. 2023 Sep 20;40(10):303. doi: 10.1007/s12032-023-02169-5.ABSTRACTHead and neck cancers (HNC) continues to dominate major cancers contributing to mortality worldwide. Squamous cell carcinoma is the major type of HNC. Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma grouped under HNC is a malignant tumor occurring in the oral cavity. The primary risk factors of OSCC are tobacco, alcohol consumption, etc. This review focuses on modulations, mechanisms, growth and differentiation of oral squamous cell carcinoma. Cancer cell surrounds itself with a group of elements forming a favorable environment known as tumor microenvironment (TME). I...

Interactive effects of CDKN2B-AS1 gene polymorphism and habitual risk factors on oral cancer
J Cell Mol Med. 2023 Sep 19. doi: 10.1111/jcmm.17966. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common malignant disease associated with a high mortality rate and heterogeneous disease aetiology. Cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 2B antisense RNA 1 (CDKN2B-AS1), is a long noncoding RNA that has been shown to act as a scaffold, sponge, or signal hub to promote carcinogenesis. Here, we attempted to assess the effect of CDKN2B-AS1 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on the susceptibility to OSCC. Five CDKN2B-AS1 SNPs, including rs564398, rs1333048, rs1537373, rs2151280 and rs8181047, were analy...

Integration of palliative care in the management of oral squamous cell carcinoma
Bioinformation. 2023 Jan 31;19(1):1-4. doi: 10.6026/97320630019001. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTOral Squamous cell Cancers (OSCC) is strongly associated with tobacco consumption. We here in present a case study of a OSCC patient who refused standard oncological care (SOC), to highlight the importance of integrating palliative care (PC) for improved patient outcomes. A 61 years male patient, with history of chewing tobacco for more than 20 years and diagnosed to have OSCC for 1.5 years presented with severe anaemia and a cauliflower-like growth (12 x 10 cm) in the left oral cavity and cheek with greenish-yellow discharge. Pus ...

Candida species as potential risk factors for oral squamous cell carcinoma: Systematic review and meta-analysis
Cancer Epidemiol. 2023 Sep 14;86:102451. doi: 10.1016/j.canep.2023.102451. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is considered a multifactorial disease and has been associated with microbial infections, although the association with Candida spp. is still controversial. This systematic review focused on clinical trials which evaluated the relation between oral Candida spp colonization and OSCC. PubMed; Scopus; Embase; Web of Science and Scientific Direct were assessed. Independent reviewers conducted the diagram steps. For data extraction the PRISMA protocol was followed. The quality analysis of ...

Intracavitary cardiac metastasis of cervical squamous cell carcinoma with immune thrombocytopenia: a rare case report
We present the case of an adult patient diagnosed with cervical cancer and concurrent right ventricular cancer thrombus, accompanied by immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). The patient exhibited resistance to conventional ITP drugs, with suboptimal platelet response. However, upon achieving initial control of the tumor, the patient's platelet counts returned to normal. Notably, the addition of immune checkpoint inhibitors targeting PD-L1 resulted in effective tumor control, accompanied by sustained high platelet levels. Unfortunately, during subsequent anti-tumor therapy, the patient experienced a prolonged platelet rise time, r...

Podophyllotoxin reduces the aggressiveness of human oral squamous cell carcinoma through myeloid cell leukemia ‑1
Int J Mol Med. 2023 Nov;52(5):103. doi: 10.3892/ijmm.2023.5306. Epub 2023 Sep 15.ABSTRACTPodophyllotoxin (PPT), which is derived from the podophyllum plant, exhibits marked cytotoxic effects against cancer cells; however, the precise molecular mechanism underlying its activity against human oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) has not been elucidated. In the present study, the mechanism by which PPT induced cytotoxicity in two OSCC cell lines, HSC3 and HSC4, was determined. The effects of PPT on cytotoxicity in HSC3 and HSC4 cells were analyzed using Annexin V/PI double staining, Sub‑G1 analysis, soft agar assays, western...

Integrated BATF transcriptional network regulates suppressive intratumoral regulatory T cells
Sci Immunol. 2023 Sep 15;8(87):eadf6717. doi: 10.1126/sciimmunol.adf6717. Epub 2023 Sep 15.ABSTRACTHuman regulatory T cells (Tregs) are crucial regulators of tissue repair, autoimmune diseases, and cancer. However, it is challenging to inhibit the suppressive function of Tregs for cancer therapy without affecting immune homeostasis. Identifying pathways that may distinguish tumor-restricted Tregs is important, yet the transcriptional programs that control intratumoral Treg gene expression, and that are distinct from Tregs in healthy tissues, remain largely unknown. We profiled single-cell transcriptomes of CD4+ T cells in ...

Human parvovirus B19 infection in malignant and benign tissue specimens of different head and neck anatomical subsites
CONCLUSIONS: To sum up, B19V was frequently present in HNSCC tissues of Iranian patients but mostly absent in the adjacent non-tumor tissues as well as oral mucocele lesions, buccal, and nasopharyngeal swabs of healthy subjects. HPV possibly contributes to B19V persistence in HNSCC tissues. Additional research is required to investigate potential etiological or cofactor roles of B19V in the development of HNSCCs.PMID:37710342 | DOI:10.1186/s13027-023-00528-5

Systematic evaluation of TP53 codon 72 polymorphism associated with onset and progression of oral potentially malignant disorders
CONCLUSION: Our data of a pooled-analysis indicates that TP53 codon 72 polymorphism may not act as genetic factor for the risk of OPMD onset and progression. Combined with the conclusion by a systematic review and meta-analysis, we put forward a new opinion that TP53 genetic typing cloud not influence p53 protein expression in OPMD.PMID:37697274 | DOI:10.1186/s12903-023-03316-0
