Abstract:RNase 7 is involved in the innate immunity of the oral epithelium. Variations in the expression levels of RNase 7 have been reported in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, but not in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The present study investigated the expression levels of RNase 7 in OSCC and its role in the malignant potential of these cells. The localization of RNase 7 in OSCC tissue sections was determined via immunohistochemistry. Positive staining for RNase 7 was observed around the epithelial pearls and… Show more
