Cytogenetic alterations and their molecular genetic correlates in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma: A next generation window to the biology of disease
3 Sept 2014
Abstract excerpt
Cytogenetic alterations underlie the development of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), whether tobacco and alcohol use, betel nut chewing, snuff or human papillomavirus (HPV) causes the disease. Many of the molecular genetic aberrations in HNSCC result from these cytogenetic alterations. This review presents a brief introduction to the epidemiology of HNSCC, and discusses the role of HPV in the...
