“…NPC is still a serious health problem with remarkable ethnic and geographic distribution in southern China and Southeast Asia [ 1 ]. Recently, epigenetic abnormalities are reported to play important roles in tumor development [ 37 ], and TET protein family, which demethylates DNA via catalyzing 5-mC to 5-hmC, are found to be participated in several tumor pathogenesis [ 8 14 ].…”

“…Great technological progress has been achieved in radiation therapy over the past decades, which greatly improve the outcome of NPC patient, with an 8-year overall survival (OS) of 68.5% and progression-free survival (PFS) of 62.6% in total patients as reported by Au et al 22 However, the N stage still regarded as a single adverse prognostic factor for NPC regional control, and distant metastasis is the most common form of treatment failure. 23,24 Therefore, a better and clearer understanding of the molecular mechanism of NPC invasion and metastasis is needed.…”

“…It is effective for all cases except distant metastases [54]. NPCs are also highly chemosensitive; hence, in advanced regional disease, chemoradiotherapy is the mainstay of treatment, while chemotherapy is the management of choice when distant metastases are involved [55]. The nasopharynx is a small and deep region, rendering surgical access difficult.…”
