Association of overexpressed karyopherin alpha 2 with poor survival and its contribution to interleukin ‐1β‐induced matrix metalloproteinase expression in oral cancer
ConclusionThe KPNA2 overexpression is an independent biomarker for poor prognosis of oral cavity SCC and is required for MMP‐mediated metastasis. (Source: Head and Neck)

Circulating tumor DNA as a biomarker and liquid biopsy in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
Abstract The use of circulating biochemical molecular markers in head and neck cancer holds the promise of improved diagnostics, treatment planning, and posttreatment surveillance. In this review, we provide an introduction for the head and neck surgeon of the basic science, current evidence, and future applications of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) as a biomarker and liquid biopsy to detect tumor genetic heterogeneity in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).
