Revealing CASQ1 as a potential target for oral squamous cell carcinoma through gene expression and functional analysis: an in silico approach
Key Points
CASQ1 shows significant expression changes associated with oral squamous cell carcinoma, indicating its potential role in tumorigenesis.
Gene expression analysis revealed a 2.5-fold increase in CASQ1 expression in cancerous tissues compared to healthy tissues.
Using bioinformatics tools, functional analysis established connections between CASQ1 and key molecular pathways in oral squamous cell carcinoma.
These findings suggest that targeting CASQ1 may offer new therapeutic options, highlighting the need for further investigation.
