Figure 2

OPN and CEACAM5 expression with different expression pattern and location were found in normal tongue tissue. CEACAM5 expression with membranous staining was restricted on the superficial epithelium (black arrow) (A), however, OPN expression with mainly cytoplasmic staining was restricted on the deep epithelium (red arrow) (A). no colocalization was observation in cytoplasm (A). In squamous carcinoma of tongue, OPN (red arrow) and CEACAM5 (black arrow) expression were found with cytoplasmic staining (B). CEACAM5 and OPN are being colocalized in cytoplasm (green arrow) (B).
