Abstract
Notch signaling is an evolutionarily ancient mechanism which intricated in cell–cell communication and it plays a crucial role in various developments in malignancies. Inactivating mutations of NOTCH targets are present in about 10 % of cases of squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, oral cavity, and esophagus that rendering it one of the most frequently mutated genes in oral squamous cell carcinoma. Therefore, it is of interest to document the molecular docking analysis of cetuximab with the NOTCH signaling targets such as NOTCH1, NICD, and HES1. These results suggest that targeting the NOTCH signaling with cetuximab might leads to the better outcome for suppression of invasion and metastasis in oral carcinoma.
