Figure Lengend Snippet: Associations between S102 YB‐1 levels and KRAS/BRAF mutations, as well as additional clinicopathological parameters, in CRC patients. (A) Distribution of CRC localization in the study population (gray area). Relative proportion of KRAS/BRAF mutation and nuclear P‐YB‐1 at indicated locations in the colon ( n = 36). (B) Bar graph showing the relative number of samples with nuclear P‐YB‐1 dependent on KRAS/BRAF mutation status ( KRAS mut n = 15, wt n = 12, BRAS mut n = 9). (C, D) Bar graph showing the absolute number of cases with and without nuclear P‐YB‐1, dependent on KRAS mutation status (C) and BRAF mutation status (D) ( n = 36). (E, F) Impact of TNM staging, microsatellite status, grading, and lymphangio/vascular invasion on the phosphorylation status of YB‐1. Bar graphs show the proportion of samples with nuclear P‐YB1 in the T2–4 stage (E), N0, N1, and N2 subgroups (E), M0 and M1 subgroups, MSS and MSI‐High subgroups, G2 and G3 subgroups (F), L0 and L1 subgroups, V0 and V1 subgroups (F) on the intensity of phosphorylated YB‐1 in the nucleus. (G) Bar graph showing the proportions of S102 YB‐1 in the nucleus and the cytoplasm in UICC stages I–IV (G) ( n = 36). mut, mutated; n.s., non‐significant; wt, wildtype. For statistical analysis (B–G), Fisher's exact test was applied.
Article Snippet: Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed with rabbit anti‐P‐YB‐1 S102 (Cell Signaling, #2900) on an automated immunostainer (Leica Bond‐MAX; Leica Biosystems, Wetzlar, Germany) according to the company's protocols.
