MMP-9 Knockdown Inhibits Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Lymph Node Metastasis in the Nude Mouse Tongue-Xenografted Model through the RhoC/Src Pathway
Figure 2
Knockdown of MMP-9 suppresses OSCC cell proliferation in the nude mouse tongue-xenografted model. (a, b) Expression of MMP-9 in CAL27- or SCC15-transfected cells of nude mouse tongue-xenografted tumors by IHC, respectively. (c, d) Cell proliferation is suppressed by MMP-9/shRNA transfection as shown by Ki67-positive cells. All data are shown as the . , compared with the control group.
