Expression of HOXD10 and HOXA4 in CRCs. (A) Overexpression of HOXD10 and HOXA4 in CRCs. Real-time PCR was done using expression of the indicated genes in colon samples (carcinomas and purified, normal colonic epithelium); n=6 for HOXA4; n=5 for HOXD10). Bars show the mean±SEM. (B) Co-staining for HOXA4 and HOXD10 with SC markers in CRCs. (a, b) Co-staining for HOXD10, HOXA4, and CD166 in CRCs. Blue represents nuclear staining with Hoechst dye; green represents CD166 expression; red represents HOXD10 and HOXA4 expression. Increased co-staining is seen for HOXD10, HOXA4, and the SC-marker CD166 in tumor tissues. Scale bar=20 μm. (c, d) Images of co-staining of HOXD10, HOXA4, and ALDH1 in CRC. Blue indicates nuclear staining with Hoechst dye; green indicates ALDH1 expression; red indicates HOXD10 and HOXA4 expression. Increased co-staining is seen for HOXD10, HOXA4, and ALDH1 in tumor tissues. *P<0.05; **P<0.005. Scale bar=20 μm. CRC, colon carcinoma. Color images available online at www.liebertpub.com/scd
