Effects of heat-killed P. intermedia on the transcriptomics of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines in transplanted tumor model mice. a Top 20 upregulated pathways in the heat-killed P. intermedia group by using KEGG pathway enrichment analysis. The red triangle indicates OSCC-related top 1 proinflammatory signaling pathways. b Chord diagrams of upregulated genes and pathways. Red asterisks indicate important genes in the upregulated signaling pathway. c Heatmap of the chemokine activity pathway gene set in both groups. d Representative images of IL-17A, IL-6, and IL-23 IHC staining. The relative AOD of IHC staining was compared between the control and heat-killed P. intermedia groups. The data are shown as the mean ± SD and were analyzed by t test. **P < 0.01, ****P < 0.0001
