ADAM10 expression in laryngeal carcinoma tissues. (A) Analysis of the protein expression level of ADAM10 in 5 of 20 paired laryngeal carcinoma tissues by western blotting. (B) mRNA level of ADAM10 in 20 paired laryngeal carcinoma tissues, as determined by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis. The experiments were repeated ≥3 times. *P<0.05. T, laryngeal carcinoma tissues; N, adjacent non-tumor tissues; ADAM, a disintegrin and metalloproteinase; mRNA, messenger RNA.
