Intratumor cholesteryl ester (CE), triglyceride (TG) and free cholesterol content (FC) in Luminal-A, Her-2 and TN breast tumors. (a) Representative thin layer chromatography showing CE, TG and FC bands in three luminal-A, Her-2 and TN representative tumors. Bar graphs show medians (interquartile ranges) of intratumor CE (b), TG (c) and FC (d) content in luminal-A (n = 10), Her-2 (n = 10) and TN (n = 10) groups. (e), Representative images showing a high content of intratumor vacuoles (asterisk) in Her-2 and TN breast tumors
