    Notes: Abstract: To determine the alterations of the p16/MTS1 gene in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), we examined in Taiwanese patients the mutation, deletion and methylation of p16/MTS1 in primary OSCCs associated mostly with betel quid (BQ)/tobacco use. Among 110 tumors undergoing mutational analyses, seven (6%) showed mutations in exon 2 or the intron 1/exon 2 splice site. All but one mutation disrupted the encoded proteins. Base transitions represented the vast majority (6/7) of the mutations identified in BQ/tobacco consuming subjects. It was noted that 15/56 (27%) tumors examined by restriction fragment methylation analysis revealed a significant level of methylation in different loci of exon 1 as compared with the respective non-cancerous tissue. Mutation of p16/MTS1 was exclusively identified in carcinomas of buccal mucosa, whereas methylation of the p16/MTS1 promoter region occurred preferentially in carcinomas of the tongue (54%) rather than at other sites (22%). Homozygous deletion was not found in 56 paired samples examined, nor was hemizygous deletion indicated in 12 informative cases. The results indicated aberrant methylation and mutation as the molecular abnormality of p16/MTS1 in the OSCC from Taiwanese.

    Notes: Background:   The importance of the CYP1A1 polymorphisms at exon 7 (Ile/Val) and 3′-untranslated region (3′-UTR) has been controversial in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) or head and neck SCC (HNSCC) denoting the value of exploring the correlation between these polymorphisms and risk of betel/smoking associated OSCC. It is also important to evaluate the association between CYP1A1 polymorphisms and susceptibility of oral precancerous lesion (OPL) to confirm the findings in OSCC cases.Methods:   We examined polymorphic prevalence of CYP1A1 at exon 7 (Ile/Val) and 3′-UTR in 106 cases with OSCC, 60 cases with OPL, and 146 controls. DNA isolated from surgical specimens and whole blood was used for PCR-based genotyping.Results:   The prevalence of the CYP1A1 A/G genotype (Ile/Val) and G/G genotype (Val/Val) in exon 7 of cases with OSCC (79.2 and 7.6%) and OPL (68.3 and 10%) were significantly higher than in controls (53.4 and 1.4%) (P 〈 0.0001). The novelty of the present study is that we identified the onset age of OSCC in CYP1A1 A/G genotype to be significantly younger than that in A/A genotype (P 〈 0.01). No significant difference was seen between cases and controls regarding the polymorphisms at 3′-UTR.Conclusion:   The findings indicate that the individuals with the CYP1A1 exon 7 containing G allele were at increased risk for OSCC and OPL.

    The molecular markers for prognostic evaluation of areca-associated buccal squamous cell carcinoma (2004)

    Notes: Background:  Buccal squamous cell carcinoma (BSCC) is the most frequently occurring oral cancer in Asians due to the popularity of areca use in this area. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the survival of areca-associated BSCC associated with multiple molecular markers.Methods:  Using immunohistochemistry, we evaluated the survival of a cohort of 55 patients with BSCC being followed long term, as correlated to the expression of variable markers.Results:  We found that p53, p21, Rb, cyclin D1 (CCD1), MDM2, and γ-catenin were positive in 81, 60, 70, 31, 88, and 44% of patients, respectively. Subjects with −ve immunoreactivity for CCD1, and +ve immunoreactivity for MDM2 and γ-catenin had significantly better survival than subjects with the opposite immunoreactive pattern. Kaplan–Meier survival curves confirmed this association.Conclusion:  The data indicate that expression of CCD1, MDM2, and γ-catenin might serve as potential prognostic markers for BSCC in areca-using patients.

    Notes: Background:  Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common malignancy in areca-chewing regions, accounting for up to 50% of malignant tumors in some South Asian countries. Amplification and/or over-expression of cyclin D1 (CCND1) is a frequent event in human malignancies, including OSCC. CCND1 G870A polymorphism (codon 242) gives rise to two isoforms of the protein. The objective of the present study was to evaluate if the risk, onset, and prognosis of areca-associated OSCC is related to CCND1 genotypes.Methods:  We analyzed the CCND1 genotype in 70 OSCC cases and 93 control Taiwanese using single-strand conformation polymorphism techniques.Results:  Statistical analysis showed that CCND1 genotype had no impact on the risk, onset, or survival of areca-associated OSCC. However, buccal squamous cell carcinoma (BSCC) appeared to be less frequently associated with AA genotype than non-BSCC (P = 0.02). In addition, amplification of CCND1 was significantly more prevalent in OSCC cases (22%) than in control subjects (2%, P 〈 0.01).Conclusion:  This study demonstrates that the CCND1 genotype may confer different risks for BSCC and non-BSCC.

    Association of aberrant p53 and p21WAF1 immunoreactivity with the outcome of oral verrucous leukoplakia in Taiwan (2000)

    Notes: Abstract: The expression of p53 and p21WAF1 in 53 oral verrucous leukoplakias (OVLs), mostly non-dysplastic lesions, was investigated to ascertain the role of such events in malignant conversion. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed aberrant p53 and p21WAF1 immunoreactivity in 51% (27 cases) and 75% (40 cases), respectively. After an average follow-up period of three and a half years, histopathological examination revealed that 22 (42%) cases had developed oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), 14 (26%) cases had undergone recurrence, and 17 (32%) cases were free of disease. The oncogenic potential of this subset of premalignant lesions warrants attention. A significant difference in the frequency of OSCC progression/recurrence was noted in lesions bearing aberrant immunoreactivity of either p53 (93% vs 42%; P=0.00008) or p21WAF1 (80% vs 32%; P=0.002) in comparison with lesions without immunoreactivity. This study suggested that the aberrant immunoreactivity of p53 and p21WAF1 may represent important alterations of OVL and could affect the outcome of this lesion.
