Different expression level of beta Catenin in HCTs (hepatocellular carcinoma tissues) and PLTs (para-cancerous liver tissues).

The HCTs, PLTs were paraffin-embedded and cut into sections with 5 μm-thickness for hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis. ab32572 was used at a dilution of 1:400. The second antibody was a biotinylated IgG to incubate 40 minutes at 37°C. Finally, the tissue slices were visualized by the 3, 3-diaminobenzidine solution and counterstained with hematoxylin. Substitution of the primary antibody with phosphate-buffered saline was served as a control for IHC.

The beta Catenin with negative, weak, moderate and strong staining activity was respectively detected in HCTs (E-H) and PLTs (M-P). Section E shown above, for full image please see original paper.
