The Expression and Related Clinical Significance of SIRT3 in Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer

Figure 2

The expression of SIRT3 in NSCLC and adjacent tissue (bar = 50 μm, 200x). (a) Negative expression (−) in normal lung tissue adjacent to squamous cell carcinoma. (b) Weak expression (+) in lung squamous cell carcinoma. (c) Moderate expression (++) in lung squamous cell carcinoma. (d) Strong expression (+++) in lung squamous cell carcinoma. (e) Negative expression (−) in normal lung tissue adjacent to lung adenocarcinoma. (f) Weak expression (+) in lung adenocarcinoma. (g) Moderate expression (++) in lung adenocarcinoma. (h) Strong expression (+++) in lung adenocarcinoma. (i, j) The expression of SIRT3 was higher in NSCLC tissue than in adjacent tissue (, ).
