Fig. 5From: Upregulated expression of miR-4443 and miR-4488 in drug resistant melanomas promotes migratory and invasive phenotypes through downregulation of intermediate filament nestinNestin levels in representative melanoma patients. Melanoma biopsies collected before starting MAPKi therapy were subjected to immunohistochemistry (IHC) analyses to measure nestin levels. Results were quantified counting positive cells in at least ten fields and expressed as percentage of positivity. Representative images of four cases are reported (TT07, TT09, TT13, and TT17). 10X magnification (scale bar 500 μm). Progression Free Survival (PFS) is expressed in days. All the clinical data are available in Suppl. Table 1Back to article page
