Abstract Nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC), endemic in Southeast Asia, lacks effective diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Even high-income countries the 5-year survival rate for stage IV NPC is less than 40%. Here we report high somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR2) expression multiple clinical cohorts comprising 402 primary, locally recurrent metastatic NPCs. We show that SSTR2 induced by Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) via NF-κB pathway. Using cell-based preclinical...

This study was designed to identify significant differences in gene expression profiles of human papillomavirus ( HPV )‐positive and ‐negative oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas OPSCC ) better understand the functional biological effects infection premalignant pathway. Twenty‐four consecutive patients with locally advanced primary were included a prospective clinical trial. Fresh tissue samples (tumor vs . matched normal epithelium) subjected whole transcriptome analysis results...

Dear Editor, OPSCC has one of the most rapidly increasing incidences all cancers.1-3 Most cases are associated with HPV infection, which confers improved survival outcomes, compared to HPV-independent disease.4 Despite advancements in understanding HPV-associated OPSCC, role biomarkers like B7-H3 and CEA, both HPV-positive HPV-negative remains unclear. This study addresses this gap by evaluating their expression correlations clinical immune parameters. Additionally, we developed a...

Pleomorphic adenomas are the most common benign tumour of major salivary glands. In addition, they may also occur in minor glands hard and soft palate. Intranasal pleomorphic unusual be misdiagnosed because have greater myoepithelial cellularity fewer myxoid stromata compared to those elsewhere. We present case a 61-year-old man who presented with 2-year history left nasal obstruction, occasional epistaxis facial pain. Radiological examination demonstrated well pneumatised paranasal sinuses...
