Figure 3. Expression profile of VEGFC in pediatric healthy and cancer tissues.

Figure 3

A) Body-wide expression profile of the VEGFC gene across the database. Each dot represents the expression of VEGFC in one sample. Anatomical origins of each sample are marked in color bars below the gene plot. The VEGFC gene is highly expressed in samples originating from malignant connective or muscular tissue (green dots). The ten green dots forming a separate group with high VEGFC expression all represent samples from Ewing’s sarcoma. B) Box plot analysis of the VEGFC gene expression levels across a variety of pediatric cancer samples. VEGFC is particularly highly expressed in Ewing’s sarcoma. NOS, not otherwise specified.
