A, slide for eIF4E expression in the adjacent normal ductal epithelial cells (negative), B, eIF4E expression in the cytoplasm of tumor cells of ductal carcinomas in situ (moderate positive), C, eIF4E expression in invasive ductal carcinoma cells (strong positive); D-F and G-I, representative panels for VEGF and IL-8 expression, respectively, in 3 types of tissues as detected for eIF4E expression in (A-C); J-L, representative slides for positive CD105 expression in 3 breast cancer specimens with invasive ductal carcinoma (×200).
