Caveolin-1 expression in cancer cells and stroma in well and poorly differentiated areas of pancreatic cancer in 11 archival samples. For details please see the Materials and methods, immunohistochemistry. Cav-1 staining was graded as follows: 0, negative; 1, weak and/or focal (<10%); 2, moderate or strong (10-50%); 3, moderate or strong >50%. Cav-1, caveolin-1, PD, poorly differentiated.
