Verfahren zur Erkennung eines oralen Plattenepithelkarzinoms und Mittel zu dessen Unterdrückung

摘要

An object of the present invention is to identify genes exhibiting characteristic behavior in the cases of carcinoma such as oral squamous-cell carcinoma using a change of expression level of micro RNA in oral squamous-cell carcinoma as an indicator, so as to provide a method for detecting carcinoma and an agent for suppressing carcinoma. The present invention A method for detecting oral squamous-cell carcinoma, which comprises detecting malignant transformation of specimens by employing a change of expression level of micro RNA as an indicator, and an agent for suppressing oral squamous-cell carcinoma using micro RNA.
