Figure 2

Galectins expression and tissular distribution in HGSC. Representative staining of gal-1, -3, -7, -8 and -9 (red fluorescence) in HGSC cancer cells (A) and peritumoral stromal cells (B). Cytokeratin staining (white fluorescence) and DAPI were used to identify epithelial cancer cells (compartment C) and nucleus, respectively. Cytokeratin negative tissue was considered as stroma (compartment S). Bar represent 20 µm. (C) Percentage of positive tumors expressing galectins in the cancer cells and the stroma of 209 HGSC specimens.
