Clinical significance of Myb protein and downstream target genes in salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma
1 Oct 2011
Abstract excerpt
Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC), the second most frequent malignancy of the major and minor salivary glands, comprise of approximately 15-23% of all carcinomas at these locations. ACC is uniquely formed of dual epithelial and myoepithelial cells that give rise to different phenotypic patterns. We hypothesize that the dual myoepithelial/ epithelial composition of ACCs underlie their biological heterogeneity and may...
