DNA methylation analysis from oral brushing reveals a field cancerization effect in proliferative verrucous leukoplakia.

Pathologica

December 2024

Functional and Molecular Neuroimaging Unit, Bellaria Hospital, Department of Biomedical and Neuromotor Sciences, University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy.

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.

Department of Oral Pathology and Microbiology, Dr. D.Y. Patil Dental College and Hospital, Dr. D.Y. Patil Vidyapeeth, Sant-Tukaram Nagar, Pimpri, Pune, 411018, MH, India.

Background: Bibliometric analysis of highly cited papers in a particular discipline brings forward the impactful papers published, the significant journals and the researchers in the field. These studies help in identifying research trends and research lacunae in the field, thus guiding the future research works. Oral proliferative verrucous leukoplakia (OPVL) is a challenging lesion with no uniform diagnostic criteria.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on comparing oral lichen planus and related lesions due to their risk of becoming cancerous and the need to differentiate them from similar conditions.
  • Researchers conducted a survey among patients to collect sociodemographic and clinical data, analyzing this information using statistical tests.
  • The findings revealed distinct characteristics for each type of lesion, with lichen planus showing reticular patterns and the buccal mucosa being the most affected area, while proliferative verrucous leukoplakia was linked with significant epithelial dysplasia.

Article Synopsis
  • Predictive biomarkers can help identify oral leukoplakia with a higher risk of becoming cancerous, which is crucial for timely intervention.
  • Two patients presented with oral burning sensations and white lesions, leading to a diagnosis confirmed through tissue analysis.
  • The study found specific changes in microRNA expressions and antioxidant enzyme activities in patients, indicating a link between these molecular changes and the risk of malignant transformation.

Oral leukoplakia is classified among oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) by the World Health Organization (WHO). The visual oral examination (VOE) is the most used method for identifying lesions in their early stages. Given that the diagnosis of oral cancer is often late, there is an urgent need for early detection and examination of oral lesions.
