Figure 1From: Expression of platelet derived growth factor family members and the potential role of imatinib mesylate for cervical cancerExpression of PDGF family members in primary tumors. In this figure we show the co-expression of receptors and ligand in each sample. Gray boxes indicate positivity, white negativity and line-drawing not done. Summary of the results is: PDGFRα: 15 cases (41.6%) were positive in tumor cells, of these, 3 cases show expression in tumor and stroma cells. Two cases were positive only in stroma (5.5%). PDGFRβ: 19 cases (52.7%) were positive in tumor cells, of these 13 samples show expression in both tumor and stoma cells. Four tumors were positive only in stroma cells (11.1%). PDGFA: 15 cases (60%) were positive at the tumor component, 14 of them in both tumor and stroma; 3 cases (12%) positive only in stroma. PDGFB: All negativeBack to article page
