Figure 1

Expression of VEGF and the VEGF receptors in giant cell tumors (GCTs) of bone. Surgical specimens were fixed in formalin and serially sectioned. (a) VEGF was expressed in stromal cells (arrows), monocyte-like cells (arrowheads) and multinuclear cells (MNCs) (asterisks). (b) Flt-1 expression was mainly detected in monocyte-like cells (arrowheads) and MNCs (asterisks). (c) Flk-1 expression was not clearly detected in the serial sections. (d) Tissue sections stained with preimmune control IgG showed no specific staining. Original magnification: X 200. Scale bar: 50 μm.
