1. SAF-1 expression in clinical breast cancer tissues.
SAF-1 expression in clinical breast cancer tissues. A, total RNA was isolated from breast cancer and adjacent pair-matched normal region tissues, and gene expression was measured by using semiquantitative RT-PCR. Expression was normalized to that of GAPDH as described in Materials and Methods. Data are representative of 3 experiments (mean ± SD). B and C, analysis of breast carcinoma and adjacent normal tissues by using H&E staining for histopathology and IHC procedure for evaluation of SAF-1 expression. The inset regions represent higher magnification of the boxed areas. A total of 60 breast tissue samples (30 carcinoma and 30 adjacent normal) were tested and some representative samples are shown here. Pathologic evaluation of the samples and the analysis of SAF-1 expression in B and C are summarized in Table 1.
