Background And Objectives: Cisplatin is one of the major drugs that used in the treatment of oral cancer.Excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1) is a key DNA repair gene in the nucleotide excision repair pathway which is activated in the repair of intra- and interstrand DNA crosslink caused by platinum-based treatment. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between polymorphisms in ERCC1 (C118T & C8092A) genes and the response to cisplatin-based chemotherapy.
Methods: ERCC1polymorphisms (C118T & C8092A) were studied using PCR-RFLP method from 150 OSCC patients as cases as well as 150 normal tissues from the same patients were collected as controls for this study. Results: Frequencies of ERCC1 C118C, C118T and T118T genotypes were 60%, 28% and 12% in OSCC patients and 78%, 19% and 3% in the controls, respectively. The C118T & T118T genotype had a 1.69 and 4.97 -folds increased risk for OSCC. Frequencies of ERCC1 C8092C, C8092A and A8092A were 78%, 18% and 4% in the OSCC patients and 89%, 10%, amd 1% in the controls, respectively. The C8092A genotype showed a 1.97-fold increased risk for OSCC.
Interpretation & Conclusions: In conclusion, this study highlights the DNA repair gene polymorphisms that might play a role in mediating susceptibility to oral squamous cell carcinoma and cisplatin therapy. Our data suggest that the ERCC1 C118T, T118T and ERCC1 C8092A genotypes are genetic risk factors for Oral squamous cell carcinoma and ERCC1 118 C/T and C8092A polymorphisms have significant influence on clinical outcome.

The most common complication associated with selective neck dissection is spinal accessory nerve dysfunction and shoulder disability, which result from level IIb dissection. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the incidence of level IIb lymph node metastasis in clinically node-negative (cN0) oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) patients. Patients presenting with cN0 OSCC between November 2012 and November 2023 were included retrospectively.

Background: Cervical lymph node metastasis (LNM) is a well-established poor prognosticator of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), in which occult metastasis is a subtype that makes prediction challenging. Here, we developed and validated a deep learning (DL) model using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the identification of LNM in OSCC patients.
Methods: This retrospective diagnostic study developed a three-stage DL model by 45,664 preoperative MRI images from 723 patients in 10 Chinese hospitals between January 2015 and October 2020.

Background: Transferrin receptor (TFRC) uptakes iron-loaded transferrin (TF) to acquire iron and regulates tumor development. Nonetheless, the clinical values and the precise functions of TF-TFRC axis in the development of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) were still undiscovered, especially the impacts of their regional heterogeneous expression.
Methods: Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to analyze the expression of TFRC in 106 OSCC patients.

The search for reliable prognostic markers in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) remains a critical need. Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), particularly T lymphocytes, play a pivotal role in the immune response against tumors and are strongly correlated with favorable prognoses. Computational pathology has proven highly effective for histopathological image analysis, automating tasks such as cell detection, classification, and segmentation.

Objectives: The aim of the present study was to analyze the methylation status in patients who presented with an Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) concomitantly with multifocal Proliferative Verrucous Leukoplakia (PVL)(PVL-OSCC).
Methods: Nine patients with OSCC and concomitant PVL lesions were selected. Two brushing samples were collected simultaneously from OSCC and PVL lesions in contralateral mucosa from each patient.
