  • The average number of fluorescent signals per nuclei are given for paxillin and chromosome 12 (α-12).

  • * See the Methods section for description of expression levels.

  • BAC, bronchioloalveolar carcinoma; INV, non-BAC component; NA, immunohistochemistry for case 7 was not interpreted because of technical difficulties.
