Abstract
A recent advance next generation sequencing (NGS) technology has enabled the identification of potential disease-based biomarkers in saliva or epithelial cells. There has been no effective oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) biomarker or well-organised molecular detection method until now, which make early diagnosis difficult, if not impossible. This chapter summarises advances in cancer research using NGS and proposes biomarkers for screening and diagnosis of OSCC using the NGS technique. As part of our review, we covered four categories: OSCC and salivary biomarkers, Uses of NGS and definitions, present biomarkers in NGS, and Candidate salivary biomarkers for OSCC using NGS.
