Bioinformatics for Oral Cancer: Current Insights and Advances

Explores the critical intersection of bioinformatics and oral cancer research to improve early diagnosis and patient survival. The text outlines how modern computational tools, such as genome sequencing and microarray analysis, allow scientists to identify specific biomarkers and gene expression patterns associated with malignant transformations. Beyond high-level genetics, the book examines the molecular pathogenesis of oral squamous cell carcinoma and the potential of salivary liquid biopsies as a non-invasive diagnostic method. Edited by experts like Mahesh KP, the chapters bridge the gap between basic laboratory science and clinical dentistry by addressing the genetic and environmental triggers of the disease...
