UNIVERSITY OF SURREY A non-invasive diagnostic test for oral cancer has been developed by researchers at the University of Surrey. Surrey scientists have developed a proof-of-concept test called PANDORA that was shown to be over 92% accurate at identifying patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The test was also shown to be more than...

Point-Of-Care Biosensor to Detect Oral Cancer
JANUARY 5TH, 2023 CONN HASTINGS DIAGNOSTICS, ENT, ONCOLOGY Researchers at the University of Florida have created a point-of-care biosensor that can rapidly detect a biomarker for oral cancer. The device uses test strips, such as those used in blood glucose tests, to spot cell proliferation regulating inhibitor of protein phosphatase 2A (CIP2A), a protein biomarker that can...

Simple blood test may allow for early detection of oral cancer
WILEY The current 60% five-year survival rate of individuals with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC)—a type of cancer of the mouth and throat—could be greatly improved if treatments were initiated as early as possible. In a study published in Natural Sciences, researchers used a technology called conductive polymer spray ionization mass spectrometry to screen the blood...

Artificial intelligence is being trained to predict whether someone is likely to develop oral cancer
The diagnosis of oral cancer could be ‘revolutionised’ by using artificial intelligence to predict whether someone is likely to develop the disease, experts have said. Experts led from the Universities of Sheffield and Warwick have teamed up to investigate how machine learning could be applied to aid doctors in early detection. Diagnoses of oral cancers...

Oral cancer pain predicts likelihood of cancer spreading
by New York University Aditi Bhattacharya, PhD, examines oral cancer using a microscope. Oral cancer is more likely to spread in patients experiencing high levels of pain, according to a team of researchers at New York University (NYU) College of Dentistry that found genetic and cellular clues as to why metastatic oral cancers are so painful....

Pathogens in the mouth induce oral cancer
by Public Library of Science Dental care. Pathogens found in tissues that surround the teeth contribute to a highly aggressive type of oral cancer, according to a study published 1st October in the open-access journal PLOS Pathogens by Yvonne Kapila of the University of California, San Francisco, and colleagues. In addition, the study showed that oral cancer formation...
