Acquiring Metastatic Competence by Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Cells Is Associated with Differential Expression of 𝜶 -Tubulin Isoforms

Figure 1

Metastatic OSSC 686Ln cells have higher invasion potentials than primary 686Tu cells. (a) Morphology of migrated OSSC 686Tu (Tu, left panel) and 686Ln cells (Ln, right panel) on the filter after H-E staining during migration assay. Pores on the filter are visible: ×300. (b) Summary of invasion potentials of 686Tu (Tu) and 686Ln (Ln) cells in migration and invasion assays as indicated at the top of each graph. Invasion potentials are expressed as numbers of migrated cells in each well.
