    Abstract: The role of tumor‐associated tissue eosinophilia (TATE) in oral cavity cancer remains quite controversial. This study investigated the potential role of TATE in tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC). Study Design Retrospective case series. Methods This study retrospectively enrolled 259 consecutive TSCC patients who underwent surgery between July 2004 and December 2015. Histopathological examinations for TATE in TSCC tumors were reviewed, and the association of TATE with different clinicopathological factors was evaluated. A nomogram was generated based on several major clinicopathological factors and TATE to improve the accuracy of prognostic prediction. Results Higher levels of TATE were significantly associated with male sex, alcohol consumption, cigarette smoking, higher pT classification, advanced disease stage, and tumor depth ( P  = .006, .003, .024, .041, .013 and .006, respectively). Our results indicated that extranodal extension, cell differentiation, and TATE were independent predictors of overall survival ( P   〈  .001, .004, and .032, respectively) and disease‐free survival ( P   〈  .001, .012, and .013, respectively). TATE levels significantly correlated with circulating eosinophils ( r  = 0.139, P  = .040), and the c‐index of our nomogram foroverall survival was 0.786, which demonstrates better accuracy in prognosis prediction than the TNM stage only (c‐index = 0.738). Conclusions Higher levels of TATE were associated with several clinicopathological factors and poorer survival rates, and a nomogram incorporating TATE levels may strengthen the prediction accuracy of prognosis in TSCC patients.

    Abstract: The aim of this study is to evaluate osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) with the extent of marginal mandibulectomy. Methods Between January 2006 and December 2012, 3087 patients undergoing ablative resection were consecutively enrolled. Among them, 345 cases undergoing marginal mandibulectomy were retrospectively reviewed. Results The occurrence of ONJ was 5.51% and associated with body mass index, overall stage, diabetes, concomitant mandibulotomy, and radiotherapy ( P  = 0.023, 0.033, 0.009, 0.016, and 0.006, respectively). As for bone parameters based on radiological measurements after marginal mandibulectomy, resected bone height, remaining bone height to original bone height ratio, and resected bone height to original bone height ratio were associated with ONJ. In multivariate logistic analyses, concomitant mandibulotomy, radiotherapy, diabetes, resected bone height of 〉 14.5 mm, resected bone height to original bone height ratio of 〉 49.5%, and remaining bone height to original bone height ratio of 〈 53.5% indicated higher risks for ONJ (adjusted HR: 4.345, 4.152, 4.079, 3.402, 3.541, and 3.211; P  = 0.018, 0.013, 0.009, 0.021, 0.018, and 0.043, respectively). Conclusions This study demonstrated the predisposing factors and parameters associated with ONJ with marginal mandibulectomy; more caution is necessitated in performing marginal mandibulectomy in patients with multiple risks to prevent ONJ.

    Abstract: There is no useful tool to clinically predict the occurrence of osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the mandible quantitatively. The aim was to investigate the risk factors, including different modalities of radiotherapy, for developing mandibular ORN in patients undergoing marginal mandibulectomy and postoperative radiotherapy. Methods Between January 2006 and December 2012, 167 subjects who underwent marginal mandibulectomy and postoperative radiotherapy with different modalities were enrolled. The association of ORN with mandibular bone measurements and patient variables was analyzed, and a nomogram was established. Results Fifteen (8.98%) of the 167 patients developed ORN during the follow‐up period, and ORN was significantly associated with diabetes mellitus (DM), body mass index (BMI), remaining bone height, remaining bone height to original bone height ratio, resected bone height to original bone height ratio, and mandibular dose ( P : 〈 0.001, 0.004, 0.042, 0.018, 0.010, 0.020, respectively). Interestingly, the risk of ORN had no significant difference between conformal and intensity modulation radiation therapy ( P = 0.407). Multivariate analysis revealed that DM and resected bone height to original bone height ratio ≥ 50% were independent risk factors for postoperative ORN. A nomogram consisting of BMI, DM, resected bone height to original bone height ratio, mandibulotomy, and mandibular dose for predicting the ORN‐free probability was established; and the c‐index of the nomogram for ORN status was 0.803. Conclusion A nomogram based on the risk factors was plotted to strengthen the prediction of ORN quantitatively. Surgeons should be more discrete regarding the treatment plan for patients with higher probability of ORN. Level of Evidence 3b Laryngoscope , 130:101–107, 2020

    Abstract: This study aimed to investigate the potential prognostic role of the oral cancer systemic inflammation score (SIS) based on serum albumin levels and the lymphocyte‐to‐monocyte ratio in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) after treatment. Study Design A retrospective cohort study. Setting Tertiary care center. Subjects and Methods The study involved 613 patients who were treated for OSCC between September 2005 and December 2014. The association of the oral cancer SIS with various clinicopathological features was investigated. A nomogram based on different clinicopathological features and SIS was established to predict prognosis. Results Higher SIS was significantly associated with older age ( P =. 0013), advanced tumor status ( P 〈 . 0001), tumor depth ( P 〈 . 0001), advanced overall pathologic stage ( P 〈 . 0001), and extranodal extension ( P =. 0045), as well as the presence of perineural invasion ( P =. 0341). Higher SIS, older age, overall stage, and extranodal extension were demonstrated to be independent prognostic indicators for shorter overall survival ( P 〈 . 0001). A nomogram comprising SIS, TNM stage, and the degree of cell differentiation, as well as perineural invasion and extranodal extension, was developed to predict the prognosis of these patients. The c‐index of the nomogram model based on TNM staging only was 0.688 and could be increased to 0.752 if SIS and several other clinicopathological parameters were incorporated. Conclusions Higher SIS is associated with many poor prognosticators, and the nomogram that was established and based on the incorporation of SIS might strengthen the prediction of prognosis in patients with OSCC.

    Abstract: The purpose of this study was to elucidate the clinicopathological associations and molecular mechanisms of karyopherin alpha 2 (KPNA2) in oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) progression. Methods The KPNA2 expressions were analyzed by immunohistochemistry and enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay in 209 tissues and 181 saliva samples, respectively. The functions of KPNA2 in migration and invasion were examined in KPNA2‐knowdown cells. The matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) levels were determined by real‐time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). The subcellular fraction was used to obtain the nuclear distribution of nuclear factor‐kappa B (NF‐κB). Results The KPNA2 overexpression was associated with extranodal extension ( P 〈 .05) and poor disease‐specific survival in patients with oral cavity SCC ( P 〈 .05). The salivary KPNA2 levels were elevated in patients with oral cavity SCC ( P 〈 .05). The KPNA2 knockdown reduced cell migration and invasion. This knockdown also suppressed the interleukin (IL)‐1β‐induced nuclear import of NF‐κB and MMP (MMP‐1, MMP‐3, and MMP‐9) transcription. Conclusion The KPNA2 overexpression is an independent biomarker for poor prognosis of oral cavity SCC and is required for MMP‐mediated metastasis.

    Abstract: DNA copy number variations (CNVs) are a hallmark of cancer, and the current study aimed to demonstrate the profile of the CNVs for oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and elucidate the clinicopathological associations and molecular mechanisms of a potential marker derived from CNVs, mixed-lineage leukemia translocated to chromosome 3 protein (MLLT3), in OSCC carcinogenesis. Materials and Methods CNVs in 37 OSCC tissue specimens were analyzed using a high-resolution microarray, the OncoScan array. Gene expression was analyzed by real-time polymerase chain reaction in 127 OSCC and normal tissue samples. Cell function assays included cell cycle, migration, invasion and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays. Results We found a novel copy number amplified region, chromosome 9p, encompassing MLLT3 via the comparison of our data set with six other OSCC genome-wide CNV data sets. MLLT3 overexpression was associated with poorer overall survival in patients with OSCC (p = .048). MLLT3 knockdown reduced cell migration and invasion. The reduced invasion ability in MLLT3-knockdown cells was rescued with double knockdown of MLLT3 and CBP/p300-interacting transactivator with ED rich carboxy-terminal domain 4 (CITED4; 21.0% vs. 61.5%). Knockdown of MLLT3 impaired disruptor of telomeric silencing-1-like (Dot1L)-associated hypermethylation in the promoter of the tumor suppressor, CITED4 (p & lt; .001), and hence dysregulated HIF-1α-mediated genes (TWIST, MMP1, MMP2, VIM, and CDH1) in OSCC cells. Conclusion We identified unique CNVs in tumors of Taiwanese patients with OSCC. Notably, MLLT3 overexpression is related to the poorer prognosis of patients with OSCC and is required for Dot1L-mediated transcriptional repression of CITED4, leading to dysregulation of HIF-1α-mediated genes. Implications for Practice This article reports unique copy number variations in oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) tumors of Taiwanese patients. Notably, MLLT3 overexpression is related to the poorer prognosis of patients with OSCC and is required for Dot1L-mediated transcriptional repression of CITED4, leading to dysregulation of HIF-1α-mediated genes.

    Abstract: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and activin A are both overexpressed in oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). We evaluated their clinical correlation and activin A-mediated EGFR regulation in this study. Overexpression of both transcripts/proteins indicated a poorer prognosis in OSCC patients. Knockdown of endogenous INHBA repressed the expression of EGFR and inhibited activin A-mediated canonical Smads, noncanonical phosphorylation of AKT (ser473) (p-AKT ser473) and SP1. Inhibition of PI3K signaling via its inhibitor attenuated p-AKT ser473 and in turn reduced SP1 and EGFR expression in the presence of recombinant activin A (rActivin A) in OSCC cells, as revealed via a luciferase assay and western blotting. However, canonical Smad signaling repressed the EGFR promoter, as revealed by a luciferase assay. The transcription factor SP1, its coactivator CBP/p300, and Smad proteins were recruited to the EGFR proximal promoter following rActivin A treatment, as revealed by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP). Smad2/3/4 dramatically outcompeted SP1 binding to the EGFR proximal promoter following mithramycin A treatment. Activin A activates the PI3K and Smad pathways to compete for binding to overlapping SP1 consensus sequences on the EGFR proximal promoter. Nevertheless, canonical p-Smad2 was largely repressed in OSCC tumor tissues, suggesting that the activin A-mediated noncanonical pathway is essential for the carcinogenesis of OSCC.

    Abstract: A newly introduced pan-immune-inflammation value (PIV) was not evaluated for its role in oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). In this study, the PIV was calculated with the following equation (neutrophil count × platelet count × monocyte count)/lymphocyte count from the results of the automated hematology analyzers in 853 OSCC patients from 2005 to 2017. The optimal cutoff for the preoperative PIV was 268, as determined by a receiver operating characteristic curve. Significant differences were observed for alcohol consumption, smoking, pT status, pN status, overall pathological status, extranodal extension, cell differentiation, depth of invasion, and perineural invasion between higher and lower PIV patients (all p values 〈 0.05). Kaplan-Meier and univariate regression analyses indicated that higher PIV was associated with worse overall survival, disease-free survival, locoregional recurrence-free survival, and distant metastasis-free survival (all p values 〈 0.001). Multivariate analyses adjusted by various factors further demonstrated that PIV was an independent prognostic factor for overall and distant metastasis-free survival (p = 0.027, HR: 1.281 and p = 0.031, HR: 1.274, respectively). In conclusion, a higher PIV level was associated with poor clinicopathological factors in OSCC patients and could be used to predict poor posttreatment outcomes, especially for overall and distant metastasis-free survival.
