Figure 2. Immunohistochemical analysis of the expression levels of VEGF, VEGFR2 and CRMP4 in tumor sections from gastric cancer patients.
A. Immunohistochemical detection of VEGF, VEGFR2, and CRMP4 expression levels in tumor and tumor-adjacent tissues collected from gastric cancer patients. B. The relative intensities of VEGF, VEGFR2 and CRMP4 expression in 10 pairs of tumor and tumor-adjacent tissues were evaluated by IPP based on the IHC results. The results analyzed with ANOVA are expressed as means ± SD. The protein expression levels of VEGF and CRMP4 were significantly increased in gastric cancer tissues compared with tumor-adjacent tissues, whereas the VEGFR2 expression levels did not display any significant increase.
