(A) Ets‐1 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) mRNA expression in renal cell carcinomas (RCC) and control non‐neoplastic tissues. T, tumor tissues; N, non‐neoplastic tissues. Note that Ets‐1 mRNA was observed in nine of 11 clear cell RCC tissues, and no apparent Ets‐1 mRNA was seen in two papillary RCC. VEGF mRNA expression was observed in all 11 clear cell and in two papillary RCC. (B) (a) Ets‐1 histoscore, (b) VEGF histoscore and (c) microvessel density in histological subtypes of RCC. The bars indicate mean ± SD. *P < 0.05; ***P < 0.0001.
