Figure 5 GATA-4 (A-C) or GATA-5 (D-F) protein in various gastric mucosa samples by immunohistochemical staining (IHC). A and D: GATA-4 and GATA-5 expression were confined to the gland region in the normal gastric mucosa; B and E: Carcinoma cells containing methylated alleles of GATA-4 (G89) or GATA-5 (G48) exhibited negative staining; C and F: Unmethylated cancer cells exhibited positive staining in case G27 and G45, respectively. Diaminobenzidine was used as a chromogen, followed by counterstaining with hematoxylin. Black bar, 50 μm in length.
