Figure 3

Supervised clustering analysis of 45 gastric adenocarcinoma (GC) specimens and 172 genes. Hierarchical clustering was used for 45 GC specimens and 213 genes. Data are shown in a matrix format, with rows representing individual genes and columns representing tissues. Each cell in the matrix represents the expression level of a gene featured in an individual tissue. Red and green cells reflect GCs with higher (≥75%) and lower (<75%) levels of Snail expression, respectively. Matrix patterns for specimens clustered into 2 distinct groups, except for one sample with higher levels of Snail expression.
