To compare the levels of salivary Interleukin 6 between oral potentially malignant disorders and oral squamous cell carcinoma
Keywords:
OSCC, OSMF, IL-6Abstract
To compare the levels of salivary Interleukin 6 between oral potentially malignant disorders and oral squamous cell carcinoma. After ethical clearance and informed consent, the saliva samples were collected from 20 patients of OPMD’S, 20 patients of OSCC and 10 controls. Salivary IL-6 levels were detected by enzyme linked Immunosorbent essay and appropriate statistical analysis was done. Significant differences in IL-6 concentration between OSCC, OPMD’S and controls were noted. Salivary IL-6 levels were higher in OSCC. The results of present study concluded that the level of salivary IL-6 in OSCC is significantly higher than oral potentially malignant disorders like OSMF and oral epithelial dysplasia and controls. This biomarker can be utilized as a major asset for early detection of cancer and can open a new horizon for treatment plans of targeted therapy.
