MicroRNA expression as predictor of local recurrence risk in oral squamous cell carcinoma
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the sixth most common cancer worldwide with a high rate of recurrence. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are gene regulators playing an important role in oral carcinogenesis. The purpose of this study was for us to identify and functionally characterize miRNAs that predict recurrence in OSCC.
METHODS: We collected 92 OSCC with their normal tissue counterparts and we performed miRNAs expression profiling on 74 …
