Abstract

BACKGROUND: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the most common malignancies with poor clinical outcome. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) have a dual role in maintaining immune homeostasis and suppressing anti-tumor immunity. The role of Tregs related genes (TRGs) in the prognosis of OSCC patients were rarely been reported.
