The expression and significance of S100A8 in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma / 实用口腔医学杂志

ABSTRACT

The expression of calcium binding protein S100A8 in 30 controls of normal oral tissue and 35 cases of OSCC was detected by immunohistochemical staining and Western blot respectively. The positive expression of S100A8 protein in OSCC and the controls was 68. 5％ and 36. 7％ respectively(P ＜ 0. 05). S100A8 may play a role in the development of OSCC.
