Figure 8

(A) The patient tissue described in Figure 6 was stained with trichrome to detect deposits of human collagen (blue) embedded between tumor cells (red). The scale bar indicates 50 μm. (B) Likewise, the above patient tissue was stained with an anti αSMA antibody for the detection of activated stellate cells (red). The scale bar indicates 50 μm. The intensity of collagen deposits or αSMA expression was evaluated as described in Figure 5C.
