However, the underlying molecular changes of tumour budding remain poorly understood. Here, we performed multiplex immunohistochemistry (mIHC) to phenotypically profile tumours using known EMT-associated markers: E-cadherin (adherence junctions), integrin beta 4 (ITGB4; basement membrane), ZO-1 (tight junctions), and pan-cytokeratin.
