Diagnostic value of integrin α3, β4, and β5 gene expression levels for the clinical outcome of tongue squamous cell carcinoma
25 Jan 2008
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The objective of the current study was to identify biomarkers that reflect the clinical course of squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue (TSCC). METHODS: TSCC tissue samples from 66 patients were subjected to gene expression analysis by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Eleven integrin family genes and 14 genes used for normalization, including housekeeping genes and genes that encode desmosomal,...
