Binding of specific phage to biopsy specimens from patients with pancreatic cancer. (A) Biopsy specimens from patients with pancreatic cancer were incubated with LQT28, RDY56 or FSV117 peptide-displaying M13 phage or control helper phage and detected by anti-M13 phage antibody. Scale bar, 40 µm. (B) Extent of binding of LQT28, RDY56 or FSV117 peptide-displaying phage to tumour and adjacent normal tissues from 24 patients with pancreatic cancer (6 patients from each stage of patients with pancreatic cancer). (C) Quantification of fold change (tumour vs normal) in the IHC intensity of LQT28, RDY56 or FSV117 peptide-displaying M13 phage in biopsy specimens from patients with pancreatic cancer using Fiji. (n=120 section images of tumour and adjacent normal tissues from 24 patients with pancreatic cancer) all data are shown as the mean±SEM. *P<0.05, ****p<0.0001 compared with control helper phage. IHC, immunohistochemistry.
