abstract：:Recent clinical studies have indicated that intra-tumoral gene expression levels of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) metabolism-related enzymes may predict the clinical response of several cancers to 5-FU-based chemotherapy. However, few studies examining oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCCs) have been reported. In this study, w...
