Kindlin-1, − 2 and − 3 protein expressions in breast cancer and adjacent noncancerous tissue. a Representative images of Kindlin-1, − 2 and − 3 immunohistochemical staining in breast cancer TMA and normal adjacent tissues. b Scatter plot showing range of Kindlin-1 and -2 expressions related to histology. Each point represents the H-score from a single tissue sample ranging from total absence of Kindlin in the epithelial compartment (H-score 0), to very strong Kindlin staining (H-score 300). Mean H-score ± SE represented. Statistical differences between normal and tumor expression levels were performed using the Mann-Whitney test
