Figure 1. Expression of pAKT in human HCC.

Figure 1

(a) pAKT expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry in liver tissues from patients with a better or poor prognosis. Representative images are shown for three patients in each category (Scale bar, 50 μm). (b) Western blotting confirmed that the protein expression of pAKT corroborated the immunohistochemical analyses of these 6 representative cases. Total AKT (TAKT) and actin levels were used as protein loading controls. (c) Relative protein expressions of pAKT and TAKT quantified by densitometry in livers of 56 BHCC and 58 PHCC, respectively. Bands were relative to protein expression from surrounding non-HCC tissues (C, control, normalized as 1). P < 0.05 compared with control; *P < 0.05: PHCC vs. BHCC.
