129
Q

Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas associated with tobacco and alcohol use often exhibit ______TP53, pRb _______, and ________ p16 expression

A

mutated TP53, pRb overexpression, and decreased p16 expression

130
Q

HPV-associated HNSCC cases typically express _______ TP53, _________ of pRb, and _________ levels of p16.

A

HPV-associated HNSCC cases typically express wild-type TP53, low levels of pRb, and increased levels of p16.

131
Q

What is the gold standard for determining active HPV causing oropharyngeal carcinoma?

A

high-risk HPV E6 and E7 oncogene expression analysis by qRT-PCR (needs fresh frozen tissue)
