Fig 1 Immunohistochemical staining patterns for maspin and p53 in non–small cell lung cancer and normal lung tissue. (A) Weak immunostaining for maspin surrounding the nucleus of bronchial gland epithelial cells in normal lung tissue and negative staining in normal alveolar epithelial cells (magnification, ×200). (B, C) Strong immunostaining for maspin in cytoplasm of adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, and negative staining of stromal cells (magnification, ×200).
