The expression of heat shock proteins 27 and 105 in squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue and relationship with clinicopathological index

Abstract

HSP27 and HSP105 may be indicated for prognostic purposes in evaluation of tongue SCC. HSP 27 may be used for more accurate microscopic grading of tongue SCC. Increased expression of HSP105 in advanced stage may lead to using this protein for immunotherapy of tongue SCC.
