<scp>PI</scp>3K–<scp>AKT</scp>–<scp>mTOR</scp> pathway proteins are differently expressed in oral carcinogenesis

Abstract

Our study demonstrated higher pAKT and pmTOR expression during carcinogenesis of oral mucosa, differing considerably among OED and OSCC specimens when compared to NDOT. These proteins can be considered potential diagnostic markers for early detection of cancer.
