Figure 5. Classical Deregulated Tumor-Stroma Signaling Cross-Talk.
Schematic illustration of the overexpressed transporters and stromal pathways in classical tumors. Ellipses represent genes overexpressed (blue) in classical PDX tumors. Yellow circles indicate methylation-associated deregulation of expression. Rectangles represent genes overexpressed in classical PDX stroma. Boxplots show the levels of cholesteryl ester in basal and classical samples. Blue-red heatmaps represent expression values of genes and miRNA. Blue-yellow heatmaps represent methylations values of CpG associated with genes. Arrows indicate the hypothetical flow of cholesterol. All heatmaps are shown with the same samples in the same order.
