Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We performed miRNA microarray analysis in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC)-derived cell lines. We identified candidate microRNAs for molecular targeting. Our findings may contribute to an understanding of key biologic functions and pathways of certain microRNAs associated with OSCC, and the expression status of TGF-β may play an important role in the progression and prognosis of this disease. In addition, the differential expression status of TGF-β may provide insights into the process of tumorigenicity and for planning new treatment strategies
