Research Abstract |
We identified plectin as a promising prognostic biomarker in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) using proteomic technics and functional studies implied that a decreased expression of plectin suppresses the proliferation,migration and invasion of HNSCC cells. Furthermore, the survival rate of patients with high plectin was significantly lower than that of patients with low E-cadherin levels, which is known to correlate with the poor prognosis of HNSCC.
