NPC is an Epstein-Barr virus-associated malignancy with a marked racial and geographic distribution. Specifically, it is highly prevalent in southern China, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East. To date, most NPC pat...
متن کاملA rapid, early detection of oral squamous cell carcinoma: Real time PCR based detection of tetranectin
The current study is focused on determining the mRNA expression levels of tetranectin, to detect oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and thus aiding in its classification at an early stage. RNA was isolated and cDNA synthesis was performed from the saliva samples of the patients and healthy individuals. A semiquantitative PCR based analysis was performed prior to quantitative and expression bas...

متن کاملNarrow band imaging of nasopharynx to identify specific features for possible detection of early nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
BACKGROUND Narrow band imaging (NBI) features of normal and early nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) have not been clearly described. The main purpose of this study was to define NBI features in the nasopharynx in the detection of early NPC. METHODS We conducted a prospective cohort study of 53 patients who underwent NBI endoscopy to describe its specific features. RESULTS Among 19 normal patie...
متن کاملEpstein-Barr virus serology in early detection and screening of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a common cancer among Chinese, especially Southern Chinese; except for a few other ethnic groups with moderate incidence, it is otherwise a rare cancer in the world. NPC has a male dominance of about 3:1 and mainly afflicts people in mid-life. There is now compelling evidences to suggest that Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), a category I human tumor virus defined by U...
