Figure 7

Immunohistochemical staining for α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) expression in LM38-LP lymph node (a, b) and lung metastases (c, d). Whereas the lymph node metastasis showed the same histoarchitecture as the subcutaneous primary tumor, and the presence of many α-SMA-positive myoepithelial cells, lung metastatic nodes were less differentiated and only a few α-SMA positive cells could be found (arrow). Scale bars, 140 μm (a,c) and 35 μm (b,d).
