  1. Note: WDHCC indicates well differentiated HCC;MDHCC: moderately differentiated HCC;PDHCC: poorly differentiated HCC;
  2. HCA: Hepatocellular adenoma; CN: Cirrhotic nodules, NLT: normal liver tissue
  3. *Staining intensity is graded as 0 (scant faint finely granular background staining), 1+ (weak), 2+ (moderate), or 3+ (strong).
