Abstract excerpt
Oral cancer (OC) is a highly aggressive malignancy characterized by uncontrolled cell proliferation in the oral cavity. Recent studies have highlighted the role of Sigma-1 receptor (SIGMAR1) mutations in cancer progression, disrupting cellular homeostasis, altering gene and protein expression, and promoting drug resistance. However, its role in OC remains scarce. This study investigated SIGMAR1 mutations,...
