Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Comprehensive Review of Risk Factors, Molecular Pathogenesis, and Prevention Strategies

2026-05-06

Abstract excerpt

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) remains a major contributor to global head and neck cancer morbidity and mortality. This review examines the epidemiological aspects of OSCC and the biological mechanisms through which established exposures (e.g., tobacco, alcohol, betel/areca nut, socioeconomic and selected viral infections etc.) and emerging determinants (oral microbiome dysbiosis, host genetics/epigenetics, a...
