GCRG213p expression in human malignant and non-malignant gastric mucosa. Both (A) primary gastric adenocarcinoma (100×) and (B) adenocarcinoma invaded into the lymph node (100×) showed positive GCRG213p stainging in the cytoplasm; (A’) and (B’) demonstrated the higher magnification (400×) from the area in (A) and (B). (C) In the non-malignant gastric epithelia, positive staining was observed in the basal membrane but not in the cytoplasm; GCRG213p immunoreactivity was detected in the cytoplasm of gastric intestinal metaplasia glands (arrowed) (100×); (C’) demonstrated the higher magnification (400×) from the area in (C).
