## Abstract We and others previously identified a region of hemizygous or homozygous deletion at chromosome band 8p23 in oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas (OSCCs) and many other cancer types, suggesting the presence of a tumorβsuppressor gene (TSG) in this region. Recently, based on a

Cancer of the head and neck arises most often from body surfaces that have been exposed to deleterious environmental influences. These body surfaces include the skin and the linings of the air and food passages. Solar radiation, alcohol, and tobacco are currently at the top of the list of the damagi
## Abstract Head and neck cancer is the world's sixth most common cancer, but despite advances in treatment, there has been no significant decline in the mortality rate. In recent years, there has been mounting epidemiologic and experimental evidence of a role for human papillomavirus (HPV) as the
Background. Nitric oxide (NOΠΈ) and its metabolic byproducts are implicated in carcinogenesis. We examined a marker of NOΠΈ-species' pathologic protein nitrosylation, nitrotyrosine, during head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCCa) development. Materials and Methods. Paraffin-embedded tissue samp
## Abstract A new class of regulatory molecules known as microRNAs (miRNAs) is redefining our understanding of the molecular pathways associated with tumorigenesis. These miRNAs are small noncoding RNA (ncRNA) sequences with potent regulatory potential. The aberrant expression of miRNAs has been as
## Abstract Cumulative evidences show that Runtβrelated transcription factor 3 (RUNX3) has a tumor suppressive role in various cancers. In particular, RUNX3 appears to be an important component of the transforming growth factorβΞ² (TGFβΞ²)βinduced tumor suppression pathway. Contrary to reports on thi
