Study of Caspase 8 mutation in oral cancer and adjacent precancer tissues and implication in progression.

PLoS ONE, 2020
It is hypothesized that same driver gene mutations should be present in both oral leukoplakia and cancer tissues. So, we attempted to find out mutations at one of the driver genes, CASP8, in cancer and adjacent leukoplakia tissues.

Pattern of Progression of Oral Potentially Malignant Disorders From Real‐World Data: A 24‐Year Study

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oral potentially malignant disorder (OPMD) prognostication is limited by uncertainty of which lesions will progress and the aggressiveness of lesion progression. We defined patterns and kinetics of progression in a large cohort of OPMD subjected to serial clinical and histologic examinations. Methods This 24‐year study evaluated the
