Vimentin Overexpressions Induced by Cell Hypoxia Promote Vasculogenic Mimicry by Renal Cell Carcinoma Cells

Figure 6

(a) VM phenomena in ccRCC tissues. The red arrows indicated microvessels with CD34 positive staining and the blue arrows indicated VM structures with CD34 negative and PAS positive staining. (b) Vimentin expressions in ccRCC tissues. Showing high expression of Vimentin (left) and low expression of Vimentin in ccRCC. (c) Both VM (left) and Vimentin expressions (right) were correlated with survival of ccRCC patients.
