Figure 5

Correlation between the expression of H3K27me3 and EZH2 in NPC tissues. (A) High expression for EZH2 was observed in an NPC (case 63), in which more than 70% of tumor cells showed nuclear positive staining of EZH2 protein (200×). (B) Overexpression of H3K27me3 was examined in the same NPC case 63 (200x). (C) In 118 NPC cases with high expression of H3K27me3, an average of 64.7% of the NPC cells stained positive with EZH2 (right column), a percentage of cancer cells that was significantly larger than that (49.0%) in 91 NPCs with low expression of H3K27me3 (left column) (P < 0.001, independent sample t test).
