Figure 1.
M3 is not expressed in adjacent noncancer pancreatic tissue but expressed in PDAC.
Notes: IHC staining was performed to examine the expression of M3 in adjacent noncancer pancreatic and PDAC tissues. The representative photographs are shown. (A) No expression of M3; (B) weak expression of M3; (C) moderate expression of M3; (D) high expression of M3; (E) M3 expression between PDAC tissues and corresponding adjacent noncancer pancreatic tissues. ***P=0.001. Magnification ×200.
Abbreviations: M3, muscarinic acetylcholine receptor 3; PDAC, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma; IHC, immunohistochemical.
