Figure 2. Continuous quantitative assessment of Cyclin D1 expression in MCL and control cases represented on a tissue microarray by AQUA.
Mean immunofluorescence within the B-cell mask of duplicate tissue cores from MCL and non-MCL lymphoid tissues stained with anti-Cyclin D1 antibody expressed as AQUA scores. Unpaired t-test shows MCL cases have a significantly higher mean expression of Cyclin D1 compared to non-MCL cases (p = 0.00019). Chromagenic staining of corresponding cases are shown for comparison. FL indicates follicular lymphoma; SLL, small lymphocytic lymphoma; FH, follicular hyperplasia.
