Song et al. (2019) identified 16 hub genes involved in the tumorigenesis of HNSCC by using the weighted gene coexpression network analysis, including CORO1A, and validated these genes at the transcription and translation levels. Moreover, a study showed that miR-367 can suppress the proliferation and invasion of oral squamous cell carcinoma by regulating PIK3R3 (Sun and Feng, 2020). Here, PIK3R3 is linked to head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
