Expression
profiles of endosialin in normal and malignant human epithelial
tissues. (A) Whisker-box plots showing expression profiles
determined by eNorthern analysis. SCC = squamous cell carcinoma;
LN = lymph node; (P) = primary; (M), metastases; Pap ca = papillary
carcinoma; AdSq Ca = adenosquamous carcinoma, LCC = large cell
carcinoma; SCLC = small cell lung carcinoma; NEC = neuroendocrine
cancer, Inflamm = inflammatory; MAC = mucinous adenocarcinoma;
HCC = hepatocellular carcinoma; IDC = intraductal carcinoma; DC
= ductal carcinoma; LC = lobular carcinoma; MC = medullary carcinoma;
MMT = Müllerian mixed tumor; ClCC = clear cell carcinoma; GCC
= granular cell carcinoma; OC = oncocytoma; TCC = transitional
cell carcinoma; WT = Wilms’ tumor. Normal head and neck tissues
consisted of seven normal parotid gland tissues and six normal
larynx samples. Patterns of endosialin expression, as determined
by immunohistochemistry with mAb FB5, are shown in (B). The avidin
biotin complex method was used, followed by hematoxylin counterstaining. |
