Expression of Potential Dermal Progenitor Cell Markers in the Tumour and Stroma of Skin Adnexal Malignant and Benign Tumours

Figure 6

Ephrin B2N expression profile: in unaffected skin, the hair follicle shows positive staining of the inner root sheath and bulbus (a and b). Cells of the hair follicle showed strong cytoplasmic with weaker nuclear staining (c). Adenoid BCC with positive cells at the tumour-stroma interaction (TSI) site within the core of the tumour (black arrows) (d) and positive cells at the invasive margin (IM) of superficial BCC (e). Strong staining of a sclerosing BCC (f).
