Mcl-1 and USP9x expression was increased in highly malignant glioblastoma. Mcl-1 and USP9x protein expressions were examined in human astrocytoma (WHO grade III) and glioblastoma (WHO grade IV) tissue samples by immunohistochemical staining. (a) Representative tissue samples stained with Mcl-1 or USP9x antibodies are shown in two magnifications. (b) Staining intensity and quantity were analyzed, and the combined immunoreactive score (IRS) was calculated for Mcl-1 (right panel) and USP9x (left panel). Median IRS±S.D. is shown above the respective group and staining. **P<0.01, ***P<0.001. Mcl-1 and USP9x expressions were significantly higher in glioblastoma than in astrocytoma
