Characterization of the Merkel Cell Carcinoma miRNome
Figure 4
In situ hybridization (ISH) confirms that miR-182 is localized to MCC tumor cells. Panels (a) and (b) demonstrate that miR-182 is highly expressed in MCC cells versus the surrounding tissue in a sample of MCC of the cheek; original magnification ×200. Panels (c) and (d) demonstrate that miR-182 expression is low compared to that in MCC cells in a sample of normal skin; original magnification ×200.
