| Abstract | Podoplanin, a type I transmembrane glycoprotein with an effect of platelet aggregation, has been reported to be one of the possible prognostic factors of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). However, the biological significance of podoplanin is largely unclear. The aim of this study was to develop a practical model for the prediction of prognosis using the grade of podoplanin expression, and also to evaluate the biological function of podoplanin. Eighty-two specimens of patients with previously untreated OSCC, who underwent either biopsy or surgery, were histopathologically and immunohistochemically analyzed. These 82 cases were composed of 66 well-differentiated, 10 moderately differentiated and 6 poorly differentiated OSCC. Podoplanin was successfully immunostained in 78 specimens, and was detected in most cases, but the frequency of positive cells varied. The prognosis of patients with more than 50 % podoplanin-positive tumor cells was significantly poorer than that of the other patients. Multivariate hazards regression analysis suggested that a linear combination of covariates, OSCC patients with more or less than 50 % podoplanin expression, age of more or less than 70 years old, mode of invasion and T3, T4 or T2 versus T1 of the UICC T-stage classification was the most effective model for evaluating the prognosis of OSCC patients. Additionally, podoplanin expression had a significant relationship to UICC clinical stage and the expression of Ki-67. An effective regression model using podoplanin expression was developed for evaluating the prognosis of OSCC and the biological significance of podoplanin was suggested to be associated with the growth and/or progression of OSCC. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
