  • Novel transcripts of EMT driving the malignant transformation of oral submucous fibrosis
    Smitha Sammith Shetty, Kanaka Sai Ram Padam, Mohit Sharma, Adarsh Kudva, Pratik Patel, et al.
    Scientific Reports, 2025
    Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) is a chronic, progressive, and fibrotic condition of the oral mucosa that carries an elevated risk of malignant transformation. We aimed to identify and validate novel genes associated with the regulation of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in OSF. Genes regulating EMT were identified through differential gene expression analysis, using a LogFC threshold of -1 and + 1 and a padj value < 0.05, based on data from GEO datasets and the TCGA-HNSC datasets. The curated EMT genes were correlated with functional cancer states and subjected to clustering to identify candidate genes. Integration of bioinformatics and proteomics led to the discovery of the EMT genes MMP9, SPARC, and ITGA5 as novel candidates. Comprehensive pathway and immunohistochemical analyses confirmed their roles in regulating EMT in OSF, oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), and OSF-associated squamous cell carcinoma (OSFSCC). The significant roles of MMP9, SPARC, and ITGA5 in fibrosis and malignancy suggest a novel mechanism in which fibrosis-associated type 2 EMT undergoes transition to type 3 EMT, driving OSF towards malignancy.

  • Systematic review and meta analysis of substance P in gingival crevicular fluid as a diagnostic biomarker for tooth pain
    Vishakha Kumar Mendiratta, Sonal Soi, Aakansha Puri, Mohit Sharma, Alpa Gupta, et al.
    Discover Applied Sciences, 2025
    Background The trigeminal sensory system releases numerous neuropeptides like neurokinin A (NKA), substance P (SP), and calcitonin gene-regulated protein (CGRP), which play crucial functions in orofacial pain. Pulpitis increases the production of these neuropeptides in pulp and peripheral body fluids like saliva and the GCF. Pain perception is the most investigated and well-researched role of SP. Moreover, SP was the first neuropeptide to be recognized in dental pulp. Methods Searches were performed in PubMed, Scopus, EBSCOhost, Epistemonikos, grey literature databases, and other available databases until July 2024. Three independent reviewers performed a grey literature search on Google to attain maximum coverage beyond peer review, and articles were resolved with agreement among the reviewers. The selection criteria were in vivo studies that evaluated SP levels in GCF at the site of tooth pain and a healthy tooth. Meta-analysis was performed using standardized mean differences by the method of Cohen using the random-effects inverse variance model with the DerSimonian-Laird estimator for tau². Results Six articles were included in the review according to the selection criteria. Five studies concluded that there is a significant elevation of levels of SP in GCF in a painful tooth when compared to a healthy tooth. These five studies were incorporated in the meta-analysis. However, one study concluded similar levels of SP in GCF in painful and healthy teeth. Conclusions The results indicate that SP concentrations in GCF could rise due to dental pain and inflammation. These findings must be interpreted conservatively since several possible confounding factors, such as differences in sampling methods, pain determination criteria, patient age, systemic health status, drug use, and periodontal status, could affect SP levels. Due to the paucity of studies and heterogeneity of methods, more high-quality research must be conducted to replicate these associations and define the clinical usefulness of SP as a pain biomarker for dentistry.
  • Interplay of epigenetics and epistasis drives oral submucous fibrosis
    Mohit Sharma, Smitha Sammith Shetty, Faisal Alhedyan, Raghu Radhakrishnan
    Discover Applied Sciences, 2025
    Persistent injury to oral mucosa due to habitual quid chewing, resulting in the upregulation of inflammatory cytokines and consequential myofibroblastic persistence, emphasizes the role of epigenetic aberration in the pathogenesis of oral submucous fibrosis (OSF). However, there is a dearth of research on the role epistasis plays in the pathophysiology of OSF. Among the important epistatic interactions in the pathophysiology of OSF are those between Phosphatase and Tensin Homologue (PTEN) and Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1, Transforming Growth Factor-β (TGF-β), Cyclooxygenases, and lipoxygenases (LOX). Additionally, PTEN and Nuclear Factor Kappa B (NF-κB) have an epistatic relationship that is particularly mediated by the p65 subunit of NF-κB. Given the importance of epigenetic modification in the pathogenesis of OSF, the potential use of DNA methyltransferase and Histone deacetylase inhibitors as a therapeutic option holds promise. Another in vivo epigenetic therapeutic option for treating OSF is using stimulatory microRNAs against antifibrotic genes and inhibitory microRNAs against profibrotic genes. This review aims to connect numerous epigenetic and epistatic components to the mechanism of OSF. A better understanding of the disease process may provide OSF management with newer therapeutic options. Graphical Abstract
  • Role of MMP inhibitors on levels of MMP‑2 and MMP‑9 in mammalian cell lines – A systematic review
    Palak Jain, Alpa Gupta, Mrinalini, Mohit Sharma
    Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology, 2025
    Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are proteolytic enzymes involved in extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation, contributing to various pathological conditions, including periapical lesions and periodontal diseases. This systematic review evaluates the inhibitory effects of different natural and synthetic MMP inhibitors on MMP-2 and MMP-9 activities in mammalian cells, which are critical enzymes implicated in ECM breakdown. A comprehensive literature search was performed across databases, including PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane until June 2023, following PRISMA guidelines. The Office of Health Assessment and Translation (OHAT) risk of bias tool was used for quality assessment, revealing a low risk of bias across all studies. Our findings demonstrate that both natural and synthetic MMP inhibitors significantly reduce MMP-2 and MMP-9 activities in mammalian cells. These compounds offer potential therapeutic benefits in managing diseases characterized by excessive MMP activity, such as periapical lesions and periodontal disease. This review highlights the therapeutic potential of MMP inhibitors in dentistry, specifically focusing on the promising roles of natural and synthetic MMP inhibitors in protecting ECM integrity.

  • To evaluate the role of mast cells on angiogenesis in various grades of oral squamous cell carcinoma: A histochemical study
    Yusra Khan, Shweta Rehani, Mohit Sharma
    Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology, 2024
    Background: Oral cancer is the sixth most common cancer, and 90% of them are oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCC). As most OSCC are asymptomatic and are only detected at an advanced stage, the 5-year survival rate is only 50%. Thus, using novel prognosticators can minimise mortality and morbidity associated with OSCC. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between mast cells and angiogenesis in different grades of OSCC to analyse their role in its progression. Material and Methods: A total of 45 cases were included, comprising 10 well-differentiated SCCs (WDOSCC), 10 moderately differentiated SCCs (MDOSCC), and 10 poorly differentiated SCCs (PDOSCC). Additionally, five normal buccal mucosae (NBM) samples served as negative controls for OSCC. Five cases of neurofibroma and pyogenic granuloma were used as positive controls for mast cells and angiogenesis, respectively. Results: The mean MCD in WDOSCC, MDOSCC, and PDOSCC were 3.2620 ± 2.65177, 3.0310 ± 1.38276, and 4.1580 ± 2.49482, respectively. The MVD in WDOSCC, MDOSCC, and PDOSCC were 10.2850 ± 4.35032, 9.9240 ± 2.72533, and 7.1520 ± 2.26966, respectively. Discussion: MCD was the highest in PDOSCC, followed by WDOSCC and MDOSCC. These results indicate a redundant role of mast cells in OSCC, or they might jumpstart malignancy but are retarded with OSCC progression. The MVD decreased with higher grades, in contrast to the prevalent literature. The correlation analysis between MVD and MCD revealed no significant correlation between them. Conclusion: We found a non-significant role of mast cells in tumour biology and a decrease in vascularity with advancing grades. These results indicate a lower need for mast cell activation to augment vascularisation. A study with a larger sample size is needed to confirm our results.

  • Role of osteopontin in oral epithelial dysplasia, oral submucous fibrosis and oral squamous cell carcinoma
    Nasir A. Salati, Mohit Sharma, Nirmala N. Rao, Smitha S. Shetty, Raghu A. Radhakrishnan
    Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology, 2023
    Background: Inflammatory cells and cytokines in the chronically injured mucosa promote fibrosis in the oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) fibrotic milieu. Osteopontin (OPN) is a wound-healing mediator that upregulates the inflammatory response and is involved in the malignancy and fibrosis of multiple organ systems. Objectives: We investigated the expression of OPN in oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) and oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCCs) to determine its role in the malignant transformation and fibrosis of oral tissues. The expression of OPN in OPMDs and OSCCs was compared and correlated, and the role of OPN as a fibrotic mediator in OSF was explained. Study Design: A total of 30 cases of normal mucosa and OPMDs (mild dysplasia, severe dysplasia, OSF and OSCCs) were studied by purposive sampling. In these groups, OPN immunoreactivity was examined and correlated with clinical findings. Results: In mild dysplasia, OPN expression was restricted to the basal cell layer with moderate staining intensity. In severe dysplasia, it was extremely intense and extended throughout the epithelium. In the OSF, OPN expression was moderate in the perinuclear areas of the basal cell layer. The expression of OPN was very strong in OSCC. A flow diagram explaining the profibrotic role of OPN in OSF has been provided. Conclusion: A positive role of OPN in both pathogenesis and malignant transformation of OPMDs and OSCC has been demonstrated.
