Fig. 2

Representative images of immunohistochemical staining of tumor tissues from patients with low grade serous ovarian cancer (LGSOC) and high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). Proteins stained are ferroportin (FPN), transferrin receptor (TFR1), Iron Regulatory Protein 2 (IRP2), ferritin heavy chain (FTH) and ferritin light chain (FTL). Dot plots show quantification of staining of tissues from 5 patients with LGSOC and 8 patients with HGSOC (3 to 4 random fields from each patient tissue slide). *p<0.002. Scale bar 1 mm; inset scale bar 10 μm.
