CEA is a SLe^X carrier in gastric carcinoma tissues and is associated with poor patient´s overall survival. A - Representative images of the immunohistochemical expression of CEA, SLe^x and PLA for both CEA+SLe^x in two gastric carcinoma cases as well as in normal gastric mucosa. Normal gastric mucosa (left column) was CEA and SLe^x negative, while two exemplary gastric carcinoma tissue samples (middle and right column) were positive for both epitopes. The PLA signal indicative for a conjoint presence of CEA-SLe^x was only observed in gastric carcinoma tissues (200x magnification). B - Kaplan-Meier analysis for CEA, SLe^X and the CEA+SLe^X. CEA+SLe^X showed a strong tendency to be associated with poor patient's overall survival.
