Switch from alpha v beta 5 to alpha v beta 6 integrin expression protects squamous cell carcinomas from anoikis [PDF]
Stratified squamous epithelia express the alphavbeta5 integrin, but in squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) there is down-regulation of alphavbeta5 and up-regulation of alphavbeta6.

Introduction: Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma—Current Status and Future Advances
Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma is the most common histological subtype of esophageal cancer. The carcinoma is more common in high-incidence areas such as in Central and Southeast Asia, Eastern and Southern Africa, South America, etc.

PDGFA/PDGFRα signaling recruits CAFs to OSCC nests, and CAF‐OSCC contact drives tumor budding invasion. Mechanistically, heterotypic adhesion via E‐cadherin/integrin α2β1 activates YAP signaling in OSCC cells, inducing EMT. Concurrently, CAFs transfer mitochondria through TNTs, supplying ATP to fuel invasion.

LIHNCS - Lugol's iodine in head and neck cancer surgery : a multicentre, randomised controlled trial assessing the effectiveness of Lugol’s iodine to assist excision of moderate dysplasia, severe dysplasia and carcinoma in situ at mucosal resection margins of oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma : study protocol for a randomised controlled trial [PDF]
Background: Oral cavity and oropharynx cancer are increasing in incidence worldwide but survival outcomes have not significantly improved over the last three decades. The presence of dysplasia or carcinoma in situ at surgical margins following resection

A highly sensitive SERS‐based platform measures PD‐L1 expression on EpCAM+ circulating EVs from cancer patients undergoing immunotherapy. Monitoring dynamic changes after treatment reveals that reduced EpCAM+ EV PD‐L1 levels associate with improved long‐term clinical outcomes, establishing a non‐invasive approach for tracking immune checkpoint ...

Differentiation-dependent glycosylation of cells in squamous cell epithelia detected by a mammalian lectin [PDF]
The squamous stratified epithelia contain a proliferative (harboring mitotic activity) and a differentiating compartment. Due to the potential of protein-carbohyd rate interactions to regulate cellular activities we introduced a mammalian lectin to cyto-

Cell‐Selective Delivery of RIBOTACs via an Anti‐EGFR Nanobody for Pancreatic Cancer Treatment
This study introduces an innovative strategy for the tumor‐selective catalytic degradation of oncogenic non‐coding RNA by interfacing a ribonuclease‐recruiting small molecule (RIBOTAC) with an EGFR‐targeting nanobody via a CTSB (Cathepsin B)‐responsive linker.
