High levels of podoplanin expression in oral squamous cell carcinoma correlate with poor prognosis in patients. A: Immunohistochemical detection of podoplanin on a tissue microarray of human oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Representative samples with low, moderate, and high levels of podoplanin expression in primary tumors and corresponding lymph node (LN) metastases are shown. Magnification, ×80. B and C: Kaplan-Meier curves for overall (B) or disease-specific (C) survival times of patients with primary OSCC that express high or low levels of podoplanin. P = 0.024 (B) or 0.02 (C; log rank, n = 252).
