The areas of black rectangles are magnified.

(C) Proportions of cells negative for EGR1 (−), nuclear-positive for EGR1 (Nuc(+)), and nuclear-negative and cytoplasm-positive for EGR1 (Other(+)) in human pancreatic cancer tissues ( n = 9 patients) were examined by immunohistochemistry, followed by quantification. (D) Representative staining images of hematoxylin and eosin (HE) and immunohistochemistry for ATF5 and EGR1 in control pancreatic tumors and those treated with AM80. The areas of black rectangles are magnified. Note that AM80 is reported to reduce tumor stiffness by inducing changes in the phenotype of CAFs. (E) Proportions of cells negative for ATF5 (−), nuclear positive for ATF5 (Nuc(+)), and nuclear negative and cytoplasm-positive for ATF5 (Other(+)) in tumor tissues obtained from control mice ( n = 9) and those administered AM80 ( n = 10) were examined via immunohistochemistry followed by quantification.
