Cadherin-1 and -3 expressions in PDAC samples from xenografted tumours. (A) Both cadherins were quantified at the transcriptional level by using gene expression microarrays from xenografted tumours from 55 patients. (B) Cadherin-1 and cadherin-3 were immunodetected on a tissue array containing PDAC samples from xenografted tumours. Cadherin staining was scored as described in Materials and Methods. (C) Box plot represents cadherin-3 protein expression in PDAC samples from xenografted tumours issued primary tumours or from metastasis. *P<0.05.
