Selected genetic determinants of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma including of some genes for cell cycle control and DNA repair
The head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, which are located in different anatomical structures like: oral cavity, throat and larynx, are becoming a major clinical problem due to the ever increasing number of cases and also due to difficulty with treating patients. Among the risks factors associated...
