Research Abstract |
The incidence of oral cavity cancers is high in elderly persons, and the number of patients with the cancers will increase in an enlargement of an aging society. It is a well-known fact that oligosaccharide structures are dramatically changed in carcinogenesis including malignant transformation.In this study, the expression levels of N-Acetylglucosaminyltransferase V (GnT-V) in the tissue sections of oral cavity cancers were correlated with the clinicopathological data. The analysis revealed that the deceased GnT-V expression level is an indicator of poorer survival outcome for patients with oral cavity cancers.
