Figure 6From: Increased expression of cysteine cathepsins in ovarian tissue from chickens with ovarian cancerLocalization of immunoreactive CTSB protein in normal and cancerous chicken ovaries. CTSB protein was detected around follicles in normal hen ovaries (A). In cancerous hen ovaries, CTSB protein was localized to the nodule area of cancer cells (B and C). In the IgG control, normal mouse IgG was substituted for antibody against each specific antibody. F, follicle; NA, nodule area. Scale bar = 100 μm (B) and Scale bar = 25 μm (C).Back to article page
