The biological behaviour of a human oral carcinoma (BSCC) in a xenograft model depends on the site of the transplantation. The aggressive malignancy of BSCC may be associated with the capacity of the basaloid cell population to generate squamous cells that are able to produce the 92-kDa type of collagenases in an appropriate microenvironment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
