Immunohistochemical staining of FERM domain containing 4A (FRMD4A) expression in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Original magnification, ×400. Representative images of (A) well-differentiated (score 2), (B) moderately differentiated (score 6), (C) poorly differentiated (score 12), (D) lymph node metastasis (score 9), (E) leukoplakia (score 3) and (F) normal tongue tissues (score 0). The estimated fraction of positive-stained tumor cells was defined as the proportion score (0, none; 1, 10%; 2, 1–50%; 3, 1–80%; 4, >80%), whereas the estimated staining intensity was demonstrated as the intensity score (0, no staining; 1, weak; 2, moderate; 3, strong) with the aggregate score ranging from 0 to 12. Overexpression of FRMD4A was defined as an aggregate score of >4.
