Gab2 is positively correlated with VEGF in CRC tissues. a Immunohistochemistry analyses of VEGF and Gab2 expression in different colorectal tissues. b Results of VEGF staining were evaluated by the staining scores. ^# P < 0.05 vs stage I–II or normal tissues. *P < 0.05 vs normal tissues. c Results of Gab2 staining were evaluated by the staining scores. ^# P < 0.05 vs stage I–II or normal tissues. *P < 0.05 vs normal tissues. d qRT-PCR analyses of VEGF and Gab2 expression in CRC tissues. e Scatter plots showing the positive linear correlation between the mRNA expression of VEGF and that of Gab2 in CRC tissues
