Combined Transcriptomic and Proteomic Forecast Analyses for Potential Biomarkers of Smoking‐Induced Benign and Malignant Transformation of Vocal Fold Lesions

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Laryngeal dysplasia and Reinke's edema (RE) are common vocal fold lesions associated with smoking. While the former is cancer prone, most cases of the latter do not undergo malignant transformation. Therefore, we proposed identifying biomarkers of smoking‐induced benign‐malignant transformation of vocal fold lesions.
