KLK8 expression in pancreatic cancer tissues and para-cancerous pancreas. (A, B) Representative immunohistochemistry staining of KLK8 in pancreatic cancer tissues and para-cancerous pancreas (n=20). (A) showed negative KLK8 staining in para-cancerous pancreas. (B) showed strong positive KLK8 staining in PDAC tissues. (C) Quantified data of the score for KLK8 staining. (D) Quantitative real-time PCR detection of KLK8 mRNA expression in paired human PDAC tissue samples and para-cancerous pancreas (n=30). Data were presented as the mean ± SEM. **p < 0.01 vs Non-tumor tissue.
