Expression of Interleukin-11 and Interleukin-11 receptor α in human colorectal adenocarcinoma; Immunohistochemical analyses and correlation with clinicopathological factors

Figure 1 Immunohistochemical staining for the IL-11 and IL-11Rα in human colorectal carcinoma. (A) is for IL-11, and (B) is for IL-11Rα. IL-11 and IL-11Rα show strong cytoplasmic and membranous expression.

Figure 2 Demonstration of IL-11 and IL-11Rα in colorectal carcinoma cells and tissues by Western blotting. All of colorectal carcinoma cells, carcinoma tissues and normal mucosa expressed both IL-11 and IL-11Rα. (N: normal mucosa, T: human colorectal cancer tissue).
