Figure 2. TRIM24 and RARα protein expression in ESCCs and adjacent NCETs. (A) Representative immunohistochemistry images for TRIM24 (upper panel) and RARα (lower panel) protein expression were presented. Upper panel: The first image represents the high expression of TRIM24 in an adjacent NCET, and then weak, moderate and strong expressions of TRIM24 protein in ESCC tissues. Lower panel: The first image represents the very weak expression of RARα in adjacent non-cancerous tissues, and then weak, moderate and strong expressions of RARα in ESCC tissues. All the images were shot at 200x magnification. (B) and (C) TRIM24 and RARα protein expression levels were compared between ESCC and adjacent NCET specimens. Statistical analyses were performed by Paired-Samples t-test.
