Nuclear Snail1 protein expression in colon carcinomas.

Expression of Snail protein was determined as indicated in Methods in samples corresponding to colon carcinomas using MAb EC3. Micrographs of several representative stained sections are shown. Panels A–E corresponded to tumours considered positive only in the stroma; panel F, just in the tumour, and panels G–P; in both compartments. The arrow in panel H labels a cell that cannot be clearly classified as tumoral or stromal. In panel O the arrow points at a cell entering a vessel. Bars indicate magnification.
