Immunohistochemical staining of phospho-AKT and MMP-2 expression in HCC and corresponding tumor-adjacent tissues. (A) Immunohistochemical staining for phospho-AKT expression in HCC and adjacent non-tumorous liver tissues. Representative images (×200; ×400) of positive staining in HCC tissues and negative staining in adjacent non-tumorous liver tissues. (B) Immunohistochemical staining integrated optical density (IOD) value of phospho-AKT in HCC and adjacent non-tumorous liver tissues (n=63, P=0.0048). (C) Immunohistochemical staining for MMP-2 expression in HCC and adjacent non-tumorous liver tissues. Representative images (×200; ×400) of positive staining (right) in HCC tissues and negative staining (left) in adjacent non-tumorous liver tissues. (D) Immunohistochemical staining integrated optical density (IOD) value of MMP-2 in HCC and adjacent non-tumorous liver tissues (n=63, P=0.027).
