A) Representative photomicrographs (40X) of the IHC analysis of tumors showing HGF staining in negative control and 10%, 45%, and 60% diet groups. B) HGF protein levels in tumors were quantified using the Aperio ImageScope color deconvolution algorithm for n = 2 sections from 5 mice per diet group. C) c-Met mRNA expression was determined using qPCR analysis in tumor tissues for n = 7. D) Representative photomicrographs (40X) of the IHC tumor analysis of membrane localized c-Met staining in negative controls and 10%, 45%, and 60% diet groups (arrows). E) Total c-Met protein levels in tumors were measured using the Aperio ImageScope membrane algorithm and quantified as above. F) Western immunoblot expression of c-Met in n=3 tumors per diet group and quantification (c-Met normalized to amido black staining loading control). G) Representative photomicrographs (40X) of the IHC tumor analysis of pc-Met staining in negative controls and 10%, 45%, and 60% diet groups. H) Total pc-Met protein levels in tumors were measured using the Aperio ImageScope color deconvolution algorithm and quantified as above.
