Fig. 3

Immunohistochemical expression of MUC2 (a), MUC4 (b), MUC5AC (c) and MUC6 (d). Focal weak staining of MUC2 was observed in the cytoplasm of mucinous carcinoma cells (a). Positive expression of MUC4 was observed in invasive ductal carcinoma cells including intracytoplasmic mucin (b). Conspicuous expression of MUC5AC and MUC6 was noted in invasive ductal carcinoma (c) and mucinous carcinoma (d), but not in intracytoplasmic mucin. Original magnification × 400 (a–d)
