## Abstract Tenascin‐C (TN‐C) and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are highly expressed in cancer tissues and probably promote cell migration during cancer progression. TN‐C and MMPs are often co‐localized in areas of active tissue remodeling in pathologic conditions, suggesting reciprocal regulati

## Abstract Members of Snail family of transcription factors play an important role in oral cancer progression by inducing epithelial–mesenchymal transition, by promoting invasion and by increasing matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) expression. Although Snail (Snai1) is the best characterized and the m
Numerous reports have shown an association between overexpression of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), and poor prognosis in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC), however, the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. In the present study, we set out to determine whether EGFR exp
