Immunohistological localization of PIM-1 in gastric cancer. Strong positive brownish staining for PIM-1 in cytoplasm of tumor cells can be seen, while there is a lack of staining of stroma cells (×100).

Immunohistochemical detection of PIM-1 in gastric carcinoma and non-neoplastic cells. Expression: none <5%; low 5-35%; medium 35-65%; strong >65% PIM-1 positive cells.

Prognostic impact of PIM-1 overexpression in gastric glands compared to foveolae. Comparison of Kaplan-Meier curves including 117 gastric cancer patients. There was a significant difference between group 1: PIM-1 expression in gastric glands<expression in foveolae (upper curve) and group 2: PIM-1 expression in gastric glands≥expression in foveolae (lower curve). Overexpression of PIM-1 protein in gastric glands as compared to foveolae was significantly associated with poorer prognosis.
