PLCE1 Polymorphisms and Risk of Esophageal and Gastric Cancer in a Northwestern Chinese Population

Figure 4

PLCE1 protein expression in adenocarcinoma of noncardia cancer (NCC) and adjacent noncancerous (ANC) tissues by immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining. (a) Representative images of PLCE1 expression in ANC tissues with different genotypes of rs3765524 ((i) CC, (ii) CT, and (iii) TT) (400×). (b) Representative images of PLCE1 expression in NCC tissues with different genotypes of rs3765524 ((i) CC, (ii) CT, and (iii) TT) (400×). (c) IHC staining score comparison of PLCE1 (i) between ANC and NCC tissues regardless of rs3765524 genotyping, (ii) in ANC tissues with different genotypes of rs3765524, (iii) in NCC tissues with different genotypes of rs3765524. The data was represented as mean ± SE (n = 13).
