Absence of the frequently reported <i><scp>PIK</scp>3<scp>CA</scp></i>,<i><scp>CASP</scp>8,</i> and <i><scp>NOTCH</scp>1</i> mutations in South Indian oral cancers

Abstract

This is the first study that reports the status of the PIK3CA, CASP8, and NOTCH1 mutations in South Indian oral cancer samples. Our study suggests that either mutations in these genes are uncommon in South Indian oral cancer samples or likely other genes in this pathway might be mutated.
