Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Oral cancer appears initially as a small swelling or sore in the mouth. Oral cancer, which includes cancers of the floor of the mouth, tongue, lips, cheeks, sinuses, hard and soft palate, and throat (pharynx), can be fatal if not diagnosed and treated early. Despite significant progress in the diagnosis and treatment of cancers, oral cancer remains the biggest challenge of modern medicine. Identification of early biomarkers, understanding the molecular mechanism of tumor progression, factors involved in the tumor microenvironment and new therapeutics approaches for oral cancer are inevitable and require further research.
We cordially invite you to present your excellent oral cancer research discoveries in this Special Issue to the wider scientific and academic community.
In this Special Issue, entitled “Biomarkers, Molecular Mechanism, Microenvironments, and Therapeutics in Oral Cancer”, we would like to present a collection of articles, such as reviews and systematic reviews, original papers, and clinical trials.
Dr. Prakash Gangadaran
Guest Editor
