Elevated expressions of IL8 and MMP9 genes in OTSCC. The qRT-PCR tests were performed with primer sets specific for IL8 gene (A) and MMP9 gene (B) on 25 OTSCC cases and 12 normal matching samples. The p values (Wilcoxon test) were presented. Immunohistochemistry tests were performed using monoclonal antibody to IL8 and MMP9 and detected using peroxidase-antiperoxidase and diaminebenzadine (DAB) on 10 OTSCC cases. Positive stained SCC cells were observed in 4 cases for IL8 and 8 cases for MMP9. Representative images for IL8 (C) and MMP9 (D) were presented.
