Figure 3. Expression of Nav 1.8 in human prostate cancer tissues.

Figure 3

Human prostate tissue specimens consist of normal (n=17) and malignant (n=160) were analyzed by immunohistochemical staining using a polyclonal anti- Nav 1.8 antibody. Representative samples are shown. A. Normal human prostate specimen with very low Nav1.8 staining. B. Prostatic adenocarcinoma specimen GS 4 with very low Nav1.8 staining. Prostatic adenocarcinoma specimens with moderate Nav1.8 staining, GS 6 (C) and GS 7(D). Prostatic adenocarcinoma specimens with strong Nav1.8 staining, GS 8 (E) and GS10 (F). Images were taken at 40× (Olympus BX61 Camera/DP70 inverted microscope) using DP Controller Software. Arrows indicate prostate epithelium. Asterisks indicate stroma. GS, Gleason score.
