Research Reports on Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma from Nitte (Deemed to be University) Provide New Insights (Salivary mucin 4 levels in subjects with oral potentially malignant disorders and oral squamous cell carcinoma).

Research from Nitte (Deemed to be University) in Mangalore, India, focuses on salivary mucin 4 levels in individuals with oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMD) and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The study found that MUC4 levels were significantly higher in patients with OPMD and OSCC compared to healthy controls. This research suggests that MUC4 may have a role in diagnosing OPMD and OSCC, providing new insights into these conditions. [Extracted from the article]
