The tumor microenvironment (TME) is comprised of many different cell populations, such as
cancer-associated fibroblasts and various infiltrating immune cells, and non-cell …

Aim To perform a meta‐analysis to assess whether the presence of cancer‐associated
fibroblasts (CAF) is a prognostic marker of oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCC). Methods …

Different regions of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) have particular histopathological
and molecular characteristics limiting the standard tumor− node− metastasis prognosis …

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by structural abnormalities and the
progressive loss of kidney function. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) from human umbilical cord …

Oral leukoplakia is the most frequent and potentially malignant lesion of the oral cavity.
Although dysplasia grading remains the main factor for risk assessment, challenges persist …

Carcinoma associated fibroblasts (CAFs) form the main constituents of tumor stroma and
play an important role in tumor growth and invasion. The presence of CAFs is a strong …

In oral cancer, acquisition of α‐smooth muscle actin (α‐SMA)‐positive fibroblasts, known as
myofibroblasts or carcinoma‐associated fibroblasts (CAF), is an important event for …

Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been proved to be able to differentiate
into cells that are conducive to tumor growth and invasion. The mechanism is not clear. This …

Background and purpose Human papillomavirus (HPV) has been shown to be associated
with oral malignancies. The purpose of this study was to detect HPV and a high‐risk type …
