PET/MR Imaging in Head and Neck Cancer
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) can either be examined with hybrid PET/MR imaging systems or sequentially, using PET/CT and MR imaging. Regardless of the acquisition technique, the superiority of MR imaging compared to CT lies in its potential to interrogate tumor and surrounding tissues with different sequences, including perfusion and diffusion. For this reason, PET/MR imaging is preferable for the detection and assessment of locoregional residual/recurrent HNSCC after therapy. In addition, MR imaging interpretation is facilitated when combined with PET. Nevertheless, distant metastases and distant second p...

Skin and gut microbial associations with squamous cell carcinoma in solid organ transplant recipients
AbstractSolid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs) are burdened with a significantly higher risk of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) compared to the general population. Accumulating evidence suggests the potential influence of microbial dysbiosis on transplant outcomes. Based on these observations, we sought to identify differences in the cutaneous and gut microbiomes of SOTRs with and without a history of SCC. This case –control study collected and analyzed non-lesional skin and fecal samples of 20 SOTRs >  18 years old with either ≥ 4 diagnoses of SCC since most recent transplant (n = 10) or 0 diagnoses o...

Research Progress of Metformin in the Treatment of Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Endocrinology. 2023 Sep 20:bqad139. doi: 10.1210/endocr/bqad139. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the most common malignancies with high mortality, posing a great threat to both human physical and mental health. With the advancement of scientific research, a variety of cancer therapies have been used for OSCC treatment. However, the prognosis of OSCC shows no significant improvement. Metformin has been recognized as the first-line drug for the treatment of diabetes, and recent studies have shown that metformin has a remarkable suppressive effect on tumor progression. Metformin can...

STAT3-EphA7 axis contributes to the progression of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
CONCLUSION: Our results showed that the transcriptional expression of EphA7 was increased by activated STAT3, and the STAT3 signaling may act through EphA7 to promote the development of ESCC.PMID:37738252 | DOI:10.1080/0284186X.2023.2259601

Cancers, Vol. 15, Pages 4685: Role of DNA Methylation Profiles as Potential Biomarkers and Novel Therapeutic Targets in Head and Neck Cancer
t Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most common cancer worldwide and is associated with high mortality. The main reasons for treatment failure are a low rate of early diagnosis, high relapse rates, and distant metastasis with poor outcomes. These are largely due to a lack of diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive biomarkers in HNSCC. DNA methylation has been demonstrated to play an important role in the pathogenesis of HNSCC, and recent studies have also valued DNA methylation as a potential biomarker in HNSCC. This review summarizes the current knowledge on DNA methylation profiles in HPV-posi...

Estimating Remaining Life Expectancy in Veterans with Basal Cell Carcinoma Using an Automated Electronic Health Record Scoring System: A Retrospective Cohort Study
Active surveillance may be considered for low-risk basal cell carcinomas (BCC) in patients with limited life expectancy; however, estimates of life expectancy are not readily available. Veterans Health Administration ’s (VHA) Care Assessment Need (CAN) score may address this problem.

Serum autoantibody profiling of oral squamous cell carcinoma patients reveals NUBP2 as a potential diagnostic marker
In conclusion, the differential serum autoantibodies identified in the current study, including those for NUBP2, could be used as potential biomarkers for early diagnosis or as screening biomarkers for OSCC pending investigation in a larger cohort.

The Effects of Human Papillomavirus Status and Treatment on the Positive Predictive Value of Post-radiotherapy 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography in Advanced Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
The high negative predictive value of post-chemoradiation (CRT) positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) is well established in head and neck squamous cell cancers (HNSCC). The positive predictive value (PPV) remains under scrutiny, with increasing evidence that it is affected by several factors. The aim of this study was to assess the PPV of post-treatment PET-CT for residual nodal disease when stratified by treatment modality and tumour human papillomavirus (HPV) status.
