摘要

Background

The development of oral squamous cell carcinoma on the molecular level and the resulting prognosis for patients have remained poorly understood. While AngiomiR-31 was implicated in the progression and metastasis of OSCC. However, this connection has not yet been investigated in more detail and tested for its significance with regard to new therapies and the prognosis of patients.

Methods

Through a systemic analysis of putative target genes of AngiomiR-31 in OSCC, this study aimed to highlight possible prognostic markers and genes that might improve prognostic predictability in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma, especially regarding AngiomiR-31 as an outstanding mediator of angiogenesis. The study is based on gene data from 83 OSCC samples. Potentially relevant genes were selected and sorted by TNM, grading and UICC in these 83 OSCC whole-genome microarray datasets. Data was analysed and tested for significance.

Results

Through our investigation 20 potential target genes, including tumor suppressor genes, oncogenes and genes not yet categorized, were found and their expression correlated significantly with the expression of AngiomiR-31.

Conclusion

These findings contribute to a more profound understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying OSCC progression and may have implications for the development of novel therapeutic strategies targeting AngiomiR-31 in OSCC. Further validation of these genes is needed to validate their clinical relevance and potential as prognostic markers or therapeutic targets in OSCC.
