## Abstract Gene copy number aberrations are involved in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) development. To delineate candidate genes inside critical chromosomal regions, array‐CGH was applied to 40 OSCC specimens using a microarray covering the whole human genome with an average resolution of 1 M
Recurrent copy number gains of ACVR1 and corresponding transcript overexpression are associated with survival in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas

## Abstract Genetic aberrations, such as DNA copy number variation (CNV) and loss of heterozygosity (LOH), have been implicated in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) initiation and progression. This review examines CNV and LOH as predictors of HNSCC recurrence and mortality. We searched
## Abstract YKL‐40 is a glycoprotein secreted by macrophages, neutrophils and malignant tumor cells. Elevated serum levels of YKL‐40 are associated with poor prognosis in several malignancies. In this study, we examined the prognostic value of serum YKL‐40 before treatment and during follow‐up in p
