A gene expression profiling to predict recurrence of advanced tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC): Discovery and external validation

Though several approaches for improving therapy have been carried out, the prognoses of TSCC patients still remains poor. Furthermore, biological markers, which are able to distinguish patients at high risk of recurrence has not been sufficiently explored. In this study, we identified and validated the 30-specific genes for predicting TSCC patiens prognosis. In addition, the gene expression profiling data was successfully converted to protein expression profiling data.
