Abstract:Salivary gland tumours (SGTs) are a heterogeneous group of benign tumours of various origins and pathologies, showing a number of DNA modifications. Previously, in malignant head and neck cancer (HNSCC), we found overexpression of ALKBH proteins, the homologs of Escherichia coli AlkB 2-oxoglutarate and Fe(II) dependent dioxygenase. Moreover, we proved the connection of some of these dioxygenases with cancer development. Here, we studied the expression of five of these ALKBH dioxygenases: 1, 3, 4, 5, and FTO in… Show more
