The expression of CD271 is associated with stage and lymph node metastasis in human ESCC specimens. (A) The mRNA expression of CD271 was investigated in paired human ESCC specimens (T) and adjacent non-cancerous tissues (N) by qPCR. The correlation of CD271 expression with clinicopathological characteristics such as (B) stage, (C) lymph node metastasis and (D) differentiation was analyzed.
