Background: Proliferative verrucous leukoplakia (PVL) is a special type of leukoplakia characterized by high rate of malignant transformation into oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). This study aimed to analyze the canceration risk and prognostic factors of PVL and establish effective diagnostic and prognostic predictive models.
Materials And Methods: A total of 467 patients were enrolled, including 170 cases of PVL.

Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a critical and complex process involved in normal embryonic development, tissue regeneration, and tumor progression. It also contributes to retinal diseases, such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR). Although absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2) has been linked to inflammatory disorders, autoimmune diseases, and cancers, its role in the EMT of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE-EMT) and retinal diseases remains unclear.

Background: Cigarette smoking is known to induce various cellular changes and proliferative activities within the oral mucosa. This study compares the effects of smoking on cellular proliferation and cytological alterations using the AgNORs and Pap staining methods.
Methods: We performed statistical analyses to evaluate the mean AgNORs count in smokers and non- smokers.

Background: Mounting evidence exhibits circRNAs as critical regulators in the progression of many tumors. The regulatory function and potential mechanism by which circ_0008126 in gastric cancer (GC) is unknown.
Methods: To validate and analyze the expression levels and clinical values of circ_0008126 in GC patients, the biological phenotypes of circ_0008126 in GC were investigated in vitro and in vivo.

Background/objectives: S100A4, a small calcium-binding protein, promotes metastasis in a variety of human malignancies, but little is known about its involvement in ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC). Herein, we characterized the functional role of S100A4 in this tumor type.
Methods: We analyzed immunohistochemical sections from 120 OCCC patients.
