the aim of this study is to determine whether there is a role of podoplanin and glutathione s-transferases t1 (gst-t1) expression in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma. the study was completed with 33 patients and gene expression analysis was performed by qrt–pcr. the podoplanin and gst-t1 expression patterns were analyzed to determine their correlation with clinicopathologic parameters of laryn...

        Abstract   Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the most common malignant tumors of oral cavity. The ratio of men to women is about 2: 1. Generally, it   is admitted that 60% of carcinoma of the mandibular gingival are located in the posterior of premolars. Gingiva is one of the less common sites of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Due to the variable clinical and behavioral presentatio...

Introduction: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the 10 most common malignant tumors and SCC accounts 94% of all oral malignancies. Mast cells are regarded as complex and multifunctional cells, playing a significant role in immunopathology . The aim of this study is to evaluate the number of mast cells in tissue sections of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) in comparison with norma...

conclusions according to the low prevalence of hcmv in oscc, it seems that this virus plays a minor role in this kind of cancer at least in southeast of iran. more comprehensive studies are needed to investigate the oncomodulatory effect of this virus on oscc. results the mean age of the patients (66.7% female and 33.3% male) was 58.6 years. only three cases (6.3%) of the grade i, oscc biopsies...

background:non-melanoma skin cancer (nmsc), the most prevalent types being squamous cell carcinoma (scc) and basal cell carcinoma (bcc), is the most common type of malignancy in human beings. these neoplasms are more frequent in the elderly and fair skinned people and mainly occur on sun-exposed sites of the body. ultraviolet b (uvb) has a well-known effect in induction and promotion of growth ...

squamous cell carcinoma, a cancer of keratinocytes origin, mostly involves sun-exposed areas of the skin. to study the pathologic and demographic features of this disease, records of 395 patients of squamous cell carcinoma of skin and lip were reviewed. most of the patients (83%) aged 40 years or more at the time of diagnosis. respectively, 74.4% and 75.8% of cases with skin and lower lip carci...

primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma is a t-cell malignancy with atypical cd30 positive lymphocytes. pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia is an uncommon finding in primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma, and may mimic squamous cell carcinoma as pseudomalignancy. careful attention of a pathologist to correct diagnosis of pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia and its underlying cau...

The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is engaged in the molecular pathogenesis of oral squamous cell carcinoma, which frequently invades the maxilla or the mandible. However, the effects of a mTOR inhibitor on bone destruction associated with oral squamous cell carcinoma are still unclear. In this study, we investigated the antitumor effect of temsirolimus-mediated mTOR inhibition against ad...
