Abstract
Oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma (OTSCC) is a malignant tumor. Recently, studies have found that adenylate cyclase 6 (ADCY6) plays a pivotal role in many lethal tumors formation processes. The role of ADCY6 in OTSCC remains unknown. The expression of ADCY6 in OTSCC tissue samples was detected. The clinical significance of ADCY6 in OTSCC was analyzed by statistical methods. OTSCC cell lines were selected to analyze the biological function of ADCY6. Meanwhile, the effect of ADCY6 on the growth of OTSCC in vivo was explored using subcutaneous tumorigenesis assay. WB assay was used to detect the underlying signaling pathway. Cell function recovery test used to investigate the mechanism of ADCY6-promoting OTSCC malignant biological behavior via Hippo signaling pathway. We report that ADCY6 was obviously downregulated in OTSCC tissue samples and cell lines. Importantly, lower expression of ADCY6 indicates a poorer prognosis in patients with OTSCC, and its expression is significantly correlated with TNM stage and tumor size. Functionally, forced expression of ADCY6 can significantly inhibit the proliferation, migration, invasion, and promote apoptosis of OTSCC cells. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that ADCY6 upregulation impaired Hippo signaling pathway to reduce the malignant biological behavior of OTSCC. Generally, our findings suggest that ADCY6 suppressed Hippo signaling pathway to regulate malignant biological behavior in OTSCC, which provide new cues for further exploring the mechanism of occurrence and development of OTSCC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In the last decade, compartmental surgery (CTS) has been the surgical approach of choice for advanced tumors of the tongue and oral floor. METHODS Advanced tumors (cT3-T4) oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma (OTSCC) may extend beyond the lingual septum and involve the contralateral hemitongue, developing along the intrinsic transverse muscle. The disease may then involve the genioglossus muscle and, more laterally, the hyoglossus muscle. RESULTS The surgical approach to the contralateral tongue must be guided by anatomic and anatomopathological principles to achieve a safe oncological resection based on the principles of CTS. CONCLUSION We propose a schematic classification of glossectomies that extend to the contralateral hemitongue based on the anatomy and pathways of tumor spread.

Abstract
Introduction. Surgical approach for oral cancer treatment is one of the key factors that determines oncologic effectiveness, risk of postoperative complications, need for reconstructive methods etc. Currently, there exists lack of strict criteria for using one or another approaches based on the sound scientific evidence for a primary tumor of given depth of invasion.Aim. The aim of the study is a retrospective comparative analysis of oncologic efficiency of transoral and combined approaches for surgical treatment of tongue and floor of the mouth moderately advanced carcinoma.Materials and methods. 75 patients aged between 30 and 80 years with tongue and floor of the mouth squamous cell carcinoma with depth of invasion from 10 to 20 mm were included into the study. In 29 cases the tumor was resected transorally (Group 1), in 45 – via combined approach (Group 2). Group 2 patients had more advanced tumors both locally and regionally. 13 patients of Group 1 and 27 patients of Group 2 underwent adjuvant radiotherapy. The following parameters were used for comparative analysis: the rate of local and regional recurrence, locoregional control, the rate of distant metastasis and Kaplan–Meyer overall survival.Results. Mean follow up was 33.77 ± 27.72 months (range 14–115 months). The rate of local and regional recurrence was higher in Group 2 (20 % vs 10.3 % and 22.2 % vs 17.2 % respectively). Locoregional control was better in Group 1 (72.4 % vs 62.2 %). The difference for neither of the above-mentioned parameters did not reach statistical significance. Median survival was statistically significantly better in Group 1: 66 ± 17.42 months vs 23 ± 3.85 months (p = 0.030). Poorer treatment results in Group 2 can be explained by a higher proportion of patients with more advanced tumors in this group.Conclusion. The results of the present study do not allow to conclude that combined approach has oncologic advantage over less aggressive transoral approach for tumors with depth of invasion from 10 to 20 mm. It is questionable to recommend the combined approach as a universal one for lesions with such a stage of local invasiveness.

Abstract
Tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) is the most widespread and invasive subtype of oral cancer with high recurrence rates. Ailanthone (AIL) is an active ingredient in the plant extracts of Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle. Here, we showed that AIL inhibited the proliferation of human TSCC, the cell viability of Cal-27 and Tca8113 was significantly decreased after AIL treatment for 24 h. Hoechst 33258 staining demonstrated apoptotic characteristics (such as chromatin aggregation) after AIL treatment. The ratio of early- and late-apoptotic cells in AIL-treated Cal-27 and TCA8113 cells increased remarkably when compared with the control group. Bcl-2/Bax ratio and the levels of PARP1, caspase-9, and caspase-3 decreased after AIL treatment, accompanied by significant increase of cleaved PARP1, cleaved caspase-9, and caspase-3 in Cal-27 and TCA8113 cells. Meanwhile, AIL led to Cal-27 cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase. Western blot implied decreased levels of CDK1 and cyclin B1 after AIL treatment. The level of phospho-PI3K p55 subunit and p-Akt were significantly downregulated by AIL in both Cal-27 and TCA8113 cells. These findings implied the potential applications of AIL in the treatment of human TSCC.

Abstract
Oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma (OTSCC) is a quite peculiar disease from an anatomical and biological standpoint. An increasing amount of literature highlights the existence of a small subset of T1-T2N0 OTSCC, properly resected on a margin-dependent basis, which conversely proved higher than expected rates of loco-regional/distant failure and disease-specific mortality. These specific high-risk tumors might not have a margin-dependent disease and could possibly benefit from a more aggressive upfront loco-regional treatment, especially addressing the so-called T-N tract. Widespread adoption of a histopathological risk model would allow early recognition of these high-risk diseases and, consequently, intensification of the traditional treatment strategies in that specific niche. We reviewed the available knowledge trying to shed light on the potential determinants of the dismal prognosis of these high-risk OTSCC, with special reference to the role of overlooked T-N tract involvement and possible alternatives in terms of elective neck management and risk stratification.

Abstract
Tongue squamous cell carcinoma is the most common malignancy in the oral cavity. Despite advances in diagnosis and treatment, the prognosis of advanced states has not significantly improved. Depth of invasion, pattern of invasion such as tumor budding grade, lingual lymph node metastasis in early stages, collective cell migration and circulating tumor cells in peripheral blood are some examples of the mechanisms that are currently receiving increasing attention in the evaluation of the prognosis of tongue cancers. Anatomic-based surgery showed that it is possible to improve loco-regional control of tongue cancer. In patients with a "T-N tract involvement", there is significantly more distant recurrence (40%) in patients undergoing a compartmental tongue surgery. In general, the neoplastic infiltration of the lingual muscles is traced back to the finding of neoplastic tissue along the course of a muscle; however, the muscle fibers, due to their spatial conformation and the organization of the extracellular matrix, could influence the movement of tumor cells through the muscle, leaving its three-dimensional structure unchanged. We need to exclude the possibility that tongue muscle fibers represent a mechanism for the diffusion of cancer cells without muscle invasion.

Abstract
Robotic approaches and sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy are both strategies that evolved driven by the need to reduce impact of head and neck oncological surgery in terms of operative timing, morbidity, hospitalization time, and aesthetic results. A comprehensive review of the scientific literature was performed on PubMed, Embase, ResearchGate, Cochrane, and CENTRAL electronic databases with the aim to discuss the role that these two approaches can play together in the management of head and neck cancers (HNCs) of various sites. Dedicated publications on the combined robotics and SLN biopsy approaches resulted, up to now very limited, while their separated application in non-shared fields is gaining strength. However, the possibility to implement and combine technologies to minimize sequelae of head and neck surgery is an interesting and evolving topic.
