Fig. 2From: CD98hc has a pivotal role in maintaining the immuno-barrier integrity of basal layer cells in esophageal epitheliumExpression of CK14, CD98hc, CK6 and Ki67 in esophageal hyperplasia. Representative images indicating the existence of two different expression patterns in hyperplastic tissues: basal cells (red arrow head) with CK14 + CD98hc + CK6 − Ki67 − accompanying hyperplastic cells (green arrow head) with CK14 − CD98hc-CK6 + Ki67 + (Case 1); basal cells with CK14 + CD98hc + CK6 + Ki67 + accompanying hyperplastic cells with CK14 + CD98hc + CK6 + Ki67 + (Case 2).
