Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Disease Primers, 2020
Most head and neck cancers are derived from the mucosal epithelium in the oral cavity, pharynx and larynx and are known collectively as head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Oral cavity and larynx cancers are generally associated with tobacco consumption, alcohol abuse or both, whereas pharynx cancers are increasingly attributed to infection ...

Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Epigenetic Landscape [PDF]

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2020
Head and neck squamous carcinoma (HNSCC) constitutes the sixth most prevalent cancer worldwide. The molecular pathogenesis of HNSCC includes disorders in cell cycle, intercellular signaling, proliferation, squamous cell differentiation and apoptosis. In addition to the genetic mutations, changes in HNSCC are also characterized by the accumulation of ...

PKM2 Modulation in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
The enzyme pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) plays a major role in the switch of tumor cells from oxidative phosphorylation to aerobic glycolysis, one of the hallmarks of cancer. Different allosteric inhibitors or activators and several posttranslational modifications regulate its activity. Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a common disease with

Immunotherapy for Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Oral Health Reports, 2016
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma has been found to be an immunosuppressive malignancy, with many defects in the host immune system contributing to the progression of disease. A greater understanding of these defects has lead to the identification and investigation of new therapeutic strategies, targeting immune system dysfunction in an effort to ...

Immunotherapy for Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesHematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 2015
Although head and neck squamous cell carcinoma has traditionally been considered to be a very immunosuppressive, or at least nonimmunogenic, tumor type, recent results from clinical studies of immune checkpoint blockade strategies have led to resurgence in the enthusiasm for immunotherapeutic approaches. Additional strategies for immunotherapy that are

Exosomes in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2019
Exosomes are small membranous vesicles that contain proteins, lipids, genetic material, and metabolites with abundant information from parental cells. Exosomes carry and deliver bioactive contents that can reprogram the functions of recipient cells and modulate the tumor microenvironment to induce pathological events through cell-to-cell communication ...
