Description
Expression of bFGF and FGFR1 were evaluated in 61 biopsy specimens of primary OSCC (IHC). Expression was evaluated in both the cancer cells and fibroblasts at the invasive front of each tumor. bFGF and FGFR1 were expressed in all tumor specimens, whereas expression of these proteins in cancer-associated fibroblasts was associated with lymph node metastasis (P < 0.05) and worse patient survival.
