From: Persistent low expression of hZip1 in mucinous carcinomas of the ovary, colon, stomach and lung
hZip1 expression in mucinous and non-mucinous carcinomas of the ovary, colon, stomach and lung. IHC analysis was performed on tissue microarray slides comprised of 35 ovarian mucinous carcinomas, 152 ovarian serous carcinomas, 51 colonic mucinous carcinomas, 129 conventional colonic adenocarcinomas, 31 gastric mucinous carcinomas, 4 conventional gastric adenocarcinomas and 21 pulmonary mucinous carcinomas. a Representative negative ovarian mucinous carcinoma compared to b strongly positive serous carcinoma case for hZip1 protein. c Diagram showing the average hZip1 IHC scores in normal ovarian, mucinous and serous carcinomas. d Representative weak positive colonic mucinous carcinoma compared to e strongly positive conventional colonic adenocarcinoma case for hZip1 protein. f Diagram showing the average hZip1 IHC scores in normal colonic epithelium, mucinous and conventional colonic adenocarcinomas. g Representative negative gastric mucinous carcinoma compared to h strongly positive conventional gastric adenocarcinoma case for hZip1 protein. i Diagram showing the average hZip1 IHC scores in normal gastric mucosa, mucinous and conventional gastric adenocarcinomas. j Representative weak and k strong positive pulmonary mucinous carcinoma cases for hZip1 protein. ZIP1 protein was visualized using DAB with hematoxylin counterstain. Arrows showed the negative/weak positive mucinous carcinoma cells. * There is statistically significant difference
