Histological analysis of the HN12shSET xenograft tumors. Representative images of HN12shSET xenograft tumors sections stained with H&E. (A) The HN12shSET cells formed a poorly differentiated tumor with reduced keratin pearl formation and liquefactive necrotic areas (black arrows), along with viable tumor cells (white arrows). (B) The HN12shSET tumors showed atypical mitoses, anaplastic cells and hemorrhages. The inserts show an inflammatory infiltrate (a) and increased blood microvessel density (b). Asterisks (*) indicate microvessels.
