Article Title: High expression of TRMT112 is associated with the development of oral squamous cell carcinoma

doi: 10.1016/j.jobcr.2025.12.014

Figure Lengend Snippet: TRMT112 was highly expressed in OSCC and associated with poor prognosis. (A) qPCR analysis showed that TRMT1 12 mRNA was significantly increased in OSCC tissues compared to matched adjacent non-tumor tissues. (B) qPCR analysis revealed that TRMT1 12 mRNA was highly expressed in OSCC cell lines when compared to normal oral keratinocyte cell line. (C) TRMT1 12 mRNA was significantly overexpressed in the OSCC-TCGA dataset. (D) TRMT1 12 mRNA was significantly overexpressed in the HNSCC-TCGA dataset. (E, F) Kaplan-Meier and log-rank testing showed the prognosis of the patient cohort (overall and disease-free survival).
