Fragments of the tumor were fixed in 10% formaldehyde, included in paraffin, and the sections were stained with HE, VG and immunohistochemically with vimentin (VIM), MNF116, SyN, smooth muscle actin (ACT), desmin, CD68, S100, HMB45, and CD117.

EMT was assessed with alpha-smooth muscle actin (alpha-SMA) and E-cadherin.
Results: In vitro, alpha-SMA protein and mRNA levels increased in the presence of the GDPs (formaldehyde, glyoxal, methylglyoxal, and 3-deoxyglucosone), and E-cadherin decreased.
