CONTACT Alex Helkin SUNY at Stony Brook Email: alex.helkin@stonybrook.edu Phone: 631.455.6942 Ethanol is synergistic with tobacco in HNSCC carcinogenesis.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been implicated in numerous cellular processes associated with malignancy, including enhancement of cell proliferation, DNA damage, and cell migration.
