Relationship between M2 macrophages and OSCC MVD and induction of M2 macrophages in vitro. (A-B) Microscopic observation of the morphology of M2 macrophages and microvessels in OSCC. (C) Correlation between M2 macrophage counts and microvessel density in OSCC. (D) Morphological changes in THP-1 cells induced by PMA + IL-4. (E) Comparison of cell surface CD163 expression after combined induction with PMA + IL-4 and PMA alone. (F-H) Expression of CD163, CD206, and IL-10 in cells after combined induction of PMA and IL-4. An asterisk (*) indicates P < 0.05, two asterisk (**) indicates P < 0.01, three asterisks (***) indicate P < 0.001, four asterisks (****) indicate P < 0.0001, ns indicate P > 0.05, ns indicates no significant difference.
