doi: 10.7150/ijbs.29562

Figure Lengend Snippet: The expression of SMARCAD1 is significantly higher in pancreatic cancer and positively correlated with poor prognosis. A. The mRNA expression level of SMARCAD1 in pancreatic cancer is much higher than that of normal tissues from GSE16515, GSE11838 and GSE15471. B-C. Expression levels of SMARCAD1 by immunohistochemistry performed with tissue microarray of PC (n=69) and adjacent normal tissues (n=68). Representative images showed positive expression of SMARCAD1 in PC and negative expression in paired normal tissues, respectively. Scale bars=50μm. D.
