Figure 2From: Serum level and immunohistochemical expression of vascular endothelial growth factor for the prediction of postoperative recurrence in renal cell carcinomaIHC staining of VEGF in CCRCC. (A) No staining or membrane staining was observed in <20% of the tumor cells (grade 0); (B) Membrane without cytoplasmic immunostaining of tumor cells (grade 1+); (C) Diffuse membrane and cytoplasmic staining in <50% of tumor cells (grade 2+); and (D) Significant cytoplasmic staining in most tumor cells (grade 3+). Magnification was 400 × .Back to article page
