Rapid advances in multimodality therapy have not significantly improved the overall 5-yr survival of oral cancer patients in the past two decades, thereby underscoring the need for molecular therapeutics. The development of new treatment strategies for more effective management of oral cancer requir
## Abstract ## Background. This article sought to investigate the existence of parameters useful for predicting lymph node metastases in cases of surgically resected oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCCs). ## Methods. Fiftyโeight cases were studied for Eโcadherin and the truncated dominantโnegati
In addition to their role in maintenance of tissue integrity, cell adhesion molecules regulate the growth and differentiation of stratified squamous epithelia. Reduced expression of E-cadherin and the 2 1 , 3 1 and 6 4 integrins is already reported to correlate with poor histological differentiation
