Objective:To identify differentially expressed saliva proteins of oral lichen planus(OLP)patients by two-dimensional fluo-rescence difference electrophoresis(2-D DIGE)and mass spectrometry(MS).Methods:3 pairs of saliva samples from OLP patients and matched healthy adults were collected.Saliva proteins were separated by 2-D DIGE and identified by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS).Results:SDS-PAGE examination showed that the electrophoresis bands were clear and protein loss was rare. Protein dots were highly reproducible by 2-D DIGE.In average,the abundance of (31 7 ±71 )saliva protein spots were found in OLP pa-tients.4 highly reproducible spots were identified to be secretory IgA1 ,zincα-2-glycoprotein,salivary amylase and serum albumin by LC-MS and they were at higher level in OLP patients than those in the healthy controls.Conclusion:Secretory IgA1 ,zincα-2-glyco-protein,salivary amylase and serum albumin are highly expressed in the saliva of OLP patients,and may be related to the occurrence and development of oral lichen planus.

Objective :
To develop an extracellular vesicles ( EVs) co⁃loading system by synergistically deliver tumor necrosis factor related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL) /verteporfin (VPF) combination to induce apoptosis and inhibit proliferation of OSCC cells .
Methods :
TRAIL/VPF co⁃loaded EVs (MSCT⁃EVs/VPF) was purified and collected though ultracentrifugation and dialysis . The expression of CD63 , CD9 and TRAIL was detected by BCA to confirm the origin of EVs . High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used to detect the drug loading of VPF and draw the release curve in vitro . Cytotoxicity and half inhibitory concentration (IC50 ) were detected by MTT assay . The apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry . Finally , Western blot was used to detect the effects of MSCT⁃EVs/VPF on the expression of apoptosis related proteins and Yap in SCC25 cells .
Results:
MSCT⁃EVs/VPF particles were round and well dispersed with a diameter of about 100 nm . The drug loading of the nano system was about ( 15 . 43 ± 0. 44)% , 57. 8% of VPF was released in 10 h and 82. 5% in 45h ; MSCT⁃EVs and VPF could inhibit the growth of SCC25 tumor cells in a dose⁃depe~ndent manner , showing good synergistic effect in the ratio of 10 : 1 - 5 : 1 ( CI < 1 , wt% ) . At the ratio of 100 : 5 100 : 15 ( Mass ratio of MSCT⁃EVs to VPF , wt% ) , the IC50 of MSCT⁃EVs/VPF was significantly lower than that of free MSCT⁃EVs + free VPF group (P < 0. 05) , and showed a more effective inhibition . The high inhibitory effect of MSCT⁃EVs/VPF on squamous cell car cinoma cells was partly due to the regulation of Caspase⁃3 , Bax , BCL⁃2 , mTOR , p ⁃mTOR and YAP .
Conclusion
EVs delivery of a fixed proportion of TRAIL/VPF shows high inhibitory effect on oral squamous cell carcinoma cells , which provides a new idea for the treatment of multidrug⁃resistant tumors .

Objective:
To analyze the trends, gender, and age differences in the incidence of lip and oral cavity cancer in Chinese population from 1990 to 2021 and predict future incidence trends, providing a scientific basis for disease prevention and public health policy.
Methods:
Incidence data of lip and oral cavity cancer in Chinese population from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database from 1990 to 2021 were analyzed. The Joinpoint regression model was used to assess temporal trends, the age-period-cohort model was used to evaluate the independent effects of age, period, and cohort, and the Bayesian age-period-cohort model (BAPC) model was used to predict incidence trends from 2022 to 2044.
Results:
From 1990 to 2021, the age-standardized incidence rate of lip and oral cavity cancer in Chinese population increased from 2.39/100 000 to 3.76/100 000, and the crude incidence rate rose from 1.71/100 000 to 4.85/100 000. The incidence rate in males was higher and increased more rapidly than in females. Higher incidence rates were prevalent among older populations, a rapid increase in incidence rates occurred during 2003 to 2012, and earlier birth cohorts showed overall higher risks. BAPC predictions indicated a continued rise in incidence from 2022 to 2044. During this period, male incidence stabilized while female incidence increased at a relatively faster rate.
Conclusion
The incidence of lip and oral cavity cancer in Chinese population has revealed a continuous upward trend, particularly among males and older populations. Future prevention strategies should focus on these high-risk populations.
