Phenotypic characterization of ccRCC primary cultures. (a) Representative cellular morphology during in vitro growth. 100× magnification. (b) Representative micrographs of immunofluorescence staining (top) and FACS analysis (bottom) of pan-cytokeratin, vimentin, CD13 and CA9. DAPI counterstains nuclei in blue. 400× magnification. The positivity percentages for the different markers are reported in the FACS analysis as mean value (± SD) of the nine cultures. (c) Western Blot analysis of CA9 in all ccRCC primary cultures. B-actin was used as internal control.
