| Core Tip |
The study demonstrates the presence of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenomenon in oral premalignant and malignant lesions suggesting it to be an early change in carcinogenesis. The loss of E-cadherin and up-regulation of zinc-finger E-box-binding homeobox 1 from oral epithelial dysplasia to oral squamous cell carcinoma corresponds to its role in the induction of EMT and correlated to regional lymph node metastasis, thus promoting tumor progression, invasion, and metastasis. Discriminant formulas have been established to ascertain the malignant potential and to categorize instances of oral epithelial dysplasia and oral squamous cell carcinoma based on the expression of EMT markers which is not previously reported. |
