The translational significance of epithelial‐mesenchymal transition in head and neck cancer

Abstract Positive markers of epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in head and neck cancers complicate clinical management and are associated with reduced survival. We discuss recent translational discoveries in EMT and suggest additional actionable molecular pathways, biomarkers, and clinical age...
