Immunohistochemical staining for β-catenin and non-phospho β-catenin

Representative images were shown with staining for β-catenin (a and b) and non-phospho β-catenin (c and d). Nuclear and cytoplasmic staining was observed in a and c (a: upper right inset; higher magnification of cytoplasmic staining, a: lower right inset; higher magnification of nuclear staining). Only cytoplasmic staining was observed in b and d (b: upper right inset; higher magnification of cytoplasmic staining). Positive staining was observed in human colon carcinoma tissue (e). A representative case of fibroma of tendon sheath showed negative staining (f). (counterstained with hematoxylin; original magnification: a-d; ×400, e-f; ×200).
