## Abstract Aberrant promoter hypermethylation of tumorโassociated genes leading to their inactivation is a common event in many cancer types. Using a sensitive restrictionโmultiplex PCR method, we studied the promoter hypermethylation profile of the __p16, p15, hMLH1, MGMT__ and __Eโcad__ genes in
Aberrant promoter hypermethylation of p16 and MGMT genes in oral squamous cell carcinomas and the surrounding normal mucosa

## Abstract A high level of plasminogen activator inhibitorโ1 (PAIโ1 or __SERPINE1__) in tumor extracts is a marker of a poor prognosis in human cancers, including oral carcinomas. However, the mechanisms responsible for the upregulation of PAIโ1 in cancers remain unclear. Investigating specific PA
## Abstract Raman spectroscopy has been effectively applied to clinically differentiate normal and cancerous mucosal tissues. MicroโRaman spectroscopy provides a tool to better understand the molecular basis for the Raman clinical signal. The objective of the current study was to utilize microโRama
