Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate into the expression of BIRC3 in common tongue coatings. METHOD Scan array and fluorescent quantitation PCR technique were used to examine the expression of BIRC3 mRNA on tongue Mucosa of patients with tongue cancer. RESULT There were marked differences in the expression of BIRC3 mRNA of different tongue coatings. CONCLUSION Great differences exist in the expression of the tongue epithelial cell BIRC3, which is closely related to the formation of different types of tongue coatings.
