It is highly desirable to have tex characters into matlab figures. It is not one to one. But works!
The following is very good resource:

xlabel(Number of Samples (\textit{N}))
??? xlabel(Number of Samples (\textit{N}))
                  |
Error: Unexpected MATLAB expression.

>> xlabel(Number of Samples (textit{N}))
??? xlabel(Number of Samples (textit{N}))
                  |
Error: Unexpected MATLAB expression.

>> xlabel(Number of Samples (N))
??? xlabel(Number of Samples (N))
                  |
Error: Unexpected MATLAB expression.

>> xlabel('Number of Samples (textit{N})')
>> xlabel('Number of Samples (\textit{N})')
Warning: Unable to interpret TeX string
"\textit{N})"
>> xlabel('Number of Samples ('\textit{N},')')
??? Undefined function or variable 'N'.

>> xlabel('Number of Samples ('\textit{'N'},')')
??? Undefined variable "textit" or class
"textit".


>> xlabel('Number of Samples {\it{N}')
Warning: incomplete command in TeX text
string:
'Number of Samples {\it{N}'
>> xlabel('Number of Samples {\itN}')
Worked!
