Connexin43 Expression Increases in the Epithelium and Stroma along the Colonic Neoplastic Progression Pathway: Implications for Its Oncogenic Role

Figure 3

The difference in Cx43 expression in stage I and stage III/IV colonic adenocarcinoma (original magnification ×200). A higher level of Cx43 expression was significantly associated with AJCC stage III/IV adenocarcinomas (Cx43 score ), as compared to AJCC stage I (Cx43 score ).
