Immunoexpression of matrix metalloproteinase‐2 and matrix metalloproteinase‐9 in the metastasis of squamous cell carcinoma of the human tongue

Background: Squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue has frequent lymph node metastases and poor prognosis. Matrix metalloproteinase‐2 (MMP‐2) and matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP‐9) are reported to degrade basement membrane, facilitating invasion and metastasis. This study determined the expression of...
