Fig. 7. Dual immunofluorescence analysis of PTCH1-positive and SMO-positive
human DCIS and IBC. (A-F) PTCH1-Ki67 in DCIS and IBC.
Representative staining patterns are shown that indicate extensive
colocalization of PTCH1 with Ki67 in those samples expressing detectable
PTCH1. (G-J) SMO-Ki67 in DCIS and IBC. Representative staining patterns
are shown that indicate rare colocalization of SMO with Ki67 in those samples
expressing detectable SMO. Arrows and arrowheads in G indicate SMO+
cells and Ki67+ cells, respectively. (K) Quantitative
analysis of SMO-Ki67 colocalization in DCIS and IBC.
