NUCLEOLIN and cancer: Interestingly, the nucleolin expression in non-malignant tissue (Figure 2A, arrows) was predominantly nucleolar, while the high intensity of nucleolin in cancer cells was redistributed throughout the nucleoplasm (black arrowheads) and extra-nuclear compartments (white arrowheads) in nearly 33% of all the cases, irrespective of the histological type and subtypes (see Table S3) and of other clinicopathological parameters, such as smoking status, TNM staging, and the presence of metastasis.
