Figure Lengend Snippet: HMGA2-WT and -TR Expression in PCa and Breast cancer Cell Lines and Patients Tissue (A) Western blot analysis shows the expression of HMGA2 protein in prostate cancer and breast cancer cell lines, HMGA2-WT displays a higher molecular weight at about 23 KDa while the HMGA2-TR displays a lower molecular of about 17 KDa. (B) Western blot analysis measured the protein levels of both HMGA2-WT and -TR in prostate cancer patient tissue displaying different Stage/Gleason scores. (C) RT-PCR measured the mRNA levels in cDNA array. (D) Immunohistochemical analysis was performed using prostate tissue microarray with HMGA2 antibody in normal prostate tissue, hyperplasia, and chronic inflammation prostate tissue. Scale bar; 100 μm. Magnification 20X, inset 40X. Statistical analysis was conducted utilizing GraphPad Prism; (**** p < 0.0001, ***p < 0.001, **p < 0.01). Bars represents SD of the mean. Alpha-tubulin was used as a loading control. Results are representative of 3 independent experiments.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Formalin fixed and paraffinized normal human prostate tissues were stained with either β-catenin H102 (A) or pT120 (B) antibodies with TGN marker p230 antibody. Nucleus was stained in blue. Inserts are higher magnification for details. Representative images from three assays were shown. (C) Immunohistochemical staining with the pT120 antibody on normal prostate tissue (left), in the presence of 20 nM antigenic phospho-peptide (middle) or 20 nM nonphospho-peptide (right).
