Objective: To detect the roles of Livin and its relationship with bFGF in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) through observing the expression of Livin and bFGF in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma.
Method: Expression of Livin and bFGF in 41 cases of LSCC (11 cases with lymph node metastasis) and 20 cases of normal soft palate mucosa were detected by immunohistochemistry.
Result: Livin were positively detected in 29 (70.73%) cases of LSCC and negatively detected in all normal soft palate tissue. The positive rate of Livin was higher in LSCC than that in normal soft palate tissue and the expressions were significantly associated with lymph node metastasis status (P < 0.05) but not with histological grade, clinical stage and age (P > 0.05). The expression of Livin was positively correlated with the expression of bFGF.
Conclusion: The elevated expression of Livin in LSCC might play an important role in the development of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma and bFGF might be involved in the process.

Object: N6-methyladenosine (mA), is well known as the most abundant epigenetic modification in messenger RNA, but its influence on laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) remains largely unexplored and poorly understood. This study was designed to explore the effects of mA on WISP1-mediated epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and tumorigenesis in LSCC.
Methods: mA methylated and expression levels of WISP1 in LSCC tumor tissues and cells were measured by MeRIP-qPCR, qRT-PCR, and western blotting.

Purpose: The value of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in patients with oligometastatic head-and-neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) remains unclear, as existing evidence is primarily derived from retrospective single-center analyses with small patient cohorts. This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes of pulmonary SBRT in patients with oligometastatic HNSCC and to identify factors associated with survival.
Methods: This trinational multicenter cohort study, including 16 centers from XXX, XXX, and XXX, retrospectively analyzed patients with oligometastatic HNSCC undergoing SBRT for pulmonary metastases between 2010 and 2023.
Objective: This study aims to compare the effectiveness of 2 artificial saliva substitutes (Biotène vs HydraSmile) in the symptomatic management of radiation-induced xerostomia.
Study Design: Randomized double-blind cross-over study.
Setting: Single tertiary care academic institution.

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) originates from the mucosal epithelium of the oral cavity, pharynx, and larynx, and is marked by high rates of recurrence and metastasis. Calcium signaling is associated with the progression of HNSCC and the development of drug resistance. Changes in calcium ion flow can trigger severe pathophysiological processes, including malignant transformation, tumor proliferation, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and apoptosis evasion.

Background: Laryngeal squamous cell cancer (LSCC) accounts for around one-third of head and neck cancers, with smoking and alcohol as major risk factors. Despite advances in organ preservation, survival rates have stagnated globally over recent decades. The impact of socioeconomic deprivation on LSCC outcomes in the West of Scotland remains underexplored.
