Irradiation Alters the Expression of MUC1, CD44 and Hyaluronan in Oral Mucosal Epithelium

Irradiation Alters the Expression of MUC1, CD44 and Hyaluronan in Oral Mucosal Epithelium

<b>Purpose</b>: It is well established that cancer cells exploit aberrant synthesis of mucin 1 (MUC1) and hyaluronan (HA) synthesis along with HA’s physiological cell surface receptor CD44. However, their role in irradiated oral tissue has not been reported previously. We, therefore, aim...
