1A.b) tissues for STMN1. We found that, among the 24 tissue samples, 14 samples showed positive STMN1 expression. Most of them (11 samples; 78.5%) were categorized as chemoresistant tumors while 3 tumor tissues (21.5%) were categorized as sensitive tumors. On the other hand, 10 tissue samples showed negative or very weak STMN1 expression, 6 (60%) and 4 samples (40%) of which were categorized as chemosensitive and chemoresistant, respectively (Figure .1B). This evidence concerns the gene STMN1 and neoplasm.
